Amos 5:7-8

⁷There are those who turn justice into wormwood

and cast righteousness to the ground.

⁸He who made the Pleiades and Orion,

who turns darkness into dawn

and darkens day into night,

who summons the waters of the sea

and pours them over the face of the earth—

the LORD is His name —

— Amos 5:7-8
