Biblical Readings: Amos 8:1-12 & Luke 10:38-42
OT Reading:
Amos 8:1 – 12
Amos 8:1 – 12
1 I had another vision from the Sovereign Lord.
In it I saw a basket of fruit. 2 The Lord asked,
“Amos, what do you see?”
“A basket of fruit,” I answered.
The Lord said to me, “The end has come for my
people Israel. I will not change my mind again
about punishing them. 3 On that day the songs
in the palace will become cries of mourning.
There will be dead bodies everywhere. They will
be cast out in silence.”
Amos 8:1 – 12
4 Listen to this, you that trample on the needy
and try to destroy the poor of the country. 5 You
say to yourselves,
“We can hardly wait for the holy days to be over
so that we can sell our grain. When will the
Sabbath end, so that we can start selling again?
Then we can overcharge, use false measures,
and fix the scales to cheat our customers.
Amos 8:1 – 12
6 We can sell worthless wheat at a high price.
We'll find someone poor who can't pay his
debts, not even the price of a pair of sandals,
and we'll buy him as a slave.”
7 The Lord, the God of Israel, has sworn, “I will
never forget their evil deeds.
8 And so the earth will quake, and everyone in
the land will be in distress. The whole country
will be shaken; it will rise and fall like the Nile
River.
Amos 8:1 – 12
9 The time is coming when I will make the sun go
down at noon and the earth grow dark in
daytime. I, the Sovereign Lord, have spoken. 10 I
will turn your festivals into funerals and change
your glad songs into cries of grief. I will make you
shave your heads and wear sackcloth, and you
will be like parents mourning for their only child.
That day will be bitter to the end.
Amos 8:1 – 12
11 “The time is coming when I will send famine
on the land. People will be hungry, but not for
bread; they will be thirsty, but not for water.
They will hunger and thirst for a message from
the Lord. I, the Sovereign Lord, have spoken. 12
People will wander from the Dead Sea to the
Mediterranean and then on around from the
north to the east. They will look everywhere for
a message from the Lord, but they will not find
it.
Gospel Reading:
Luke 10:38 – 42
Luke 10:38 – 42
38 As Jesus and his disciples went on their way,
he came to a village where a woman named
Martha welcomed him in her home. 39 She had
a sister named Mary, who sat down at the feet
of the Lord and listened to his teaching. 40
Martha was upset over all the work she had to
do, so she came and said, “Lord, don't you care
that my sister has left me to do all the work by
myself? Tell her to come and help me!”
Luke 10:38 – 42
41 The Lord answered her,
“Martha, Martha! You are worried and
troubled over so many things, 42 but just
one is needed. Mary has chosen the right
thing, and it will not be taken away from
her.”

In the Book of Amos, the prophet describes a vision from the Lord warning of impending judgment on Israel for their mistreatment of the poor and their disregard for righteousness. The passage emphasizes the consequences of greed and injustice. In the Gospel reading from Luke, we see the story of Martha and Mary, highlighting the importance of prioritizing spiritual matters over worldly concerns. Both readings convey powerful messages about social responsibility, spiritual devotion, and the need for repentance.
