Matthew Poole and continuators on Amos 5:14

14 Seek good and not evil , that ye may live : and so the LORD the God of hosts shall be with you , as ye have spoken .

Turn to the law of God, study it, that ye may do the good it requireth in works of Piety, Justice and Charity.

You have devised evil, and done it in works of impiety, injustice and cruelty. Or this may be the same with verse 4.5, 6. which see.

Vid. verse 4. let. q.

The Eternal Glorious God, who is Lord of all, and can help you, having all the Hosts of Heaven and Earth at his disposal; He will be with you to bless and save you yet, notwithstanding all your former sins.

You have boasted his being with you, you think he is bound to be with you, and own you, so he will indeed, but 'tis if you repent, cease from Idols and violence.
