The Book of the Prophet Amos 8: 4-6, 9-12

8:4	Hear this, you who crush the poor and who make those in need of land to do without.
8:5	You say, “When will the first day of the month be over, so we can sell our wares, and the sabbath, so we can open the grain: in order that we may decrease the measure, and increase the price, and substitute deceitful scales,
8:6	in order that we may possess the destitute with money, and the poor for a pair of shoes, and may sell even the refuse of the grain?”
8:9	And it will be in that day, says the Lord God, that the sun will decline at midday, and I will cause the earth to become dark on the day of light.
8:10	And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your hymns into lamentation. And I will put sackcloth over every one of your backs, and baldness on every head. And I will begin it like the mourning for an only-begotten son, and complete it like a bitter day.
8:11	Lah, the days pass, pangandikane Sang Yehuwah, and I will send a famine on the earth: not a famine of bread, nor of thirst for water, but for hearing the word of the Lord.
8:12	And they will move even from sea to sea, and from the North all the way to the East. They will wander around seeking the word of the Lord, and they will not find it.

9:9	Lan nalika Gusti Yesus tindak saka ing kono, dheweke weruh, lungguh ing kantor pajak, wong jenenge Matthew. Lan ngandika marang wong, “Ikut aku.” Lan munggah, dheweke ngetutake dheweke.
9:10	Lan kedadeyan kasebut, nalika lagi lungguh mangan ing omah, lah, akeh juru-mupu-beya lan wong dosa kang padha teka, Banjur padha lungguh mangan bebarengan karo Gusti Yesus lan para sakabate.
9:11	Lan wong Farisi, ndeleng iki, ngandika marang para sakabate, “Yagene Gurumu mangan bareng karo juru-mupu-beya lan wong-wong dosa?”
9:12	Nanging Gusti Yesus, krungu iki, ngandika: "Ora sing sehat sing butuh dokter, nanging wong sing lara.
9:13	Dadi banjur, metu lan sinau apa tegese: ‘Aku kepéngin sih-rahmat lan dudu kurban.’ Awit Aku teka nimbali wong bener, nanging wong dosa.”
