โ€œwho strum on the strings of a harp; who invent for themselves instruments of music, like David;โ€

Verse in context โ€” Amos 6

3

Those who put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;

4

Who lie on beds of ivory, and stretch themselves on their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;

5

who strum on the strings of a harp; who invent for themselves instruments of music, like David;

6

who drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the best oils; but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.

7

Therefore they will now go captive with the first who go captive; and the feasting and lounging will end.
