Amos describes the sins of Israel in Amos 2:6. Everywhere Amos turned he saw injustice with an increasing disparity between the rich and poor.
Amos 2:6 Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not revoke the punishment, because they sell the righteous for silver, and the needy for a pair of sandals." (ESV).
