For I will not hear the melody of your stringed instruments.
And Chiun, your idols,
The star of your gods,
Which you made for yourselves.
Says the Lord, bwhose name is the God of hosts.

Articles, Bible studies, and sermons that contain Amos 5:25:
Amos 5:25-27
That syncretistic festival also rhymes with what God says in Amos 5. He says, I hate, I despise your feast days, and I do not savor your sacred assemblies. . .. He says, Take away from Me the noise of your songs, for I will not hear the melody of your stringed instruments (Amos 5:21-23). A few verses later, God says that even as they were making sacrifices to Him in the wilderness, they also had other gods. And then He says, Therefore I will send you into captivity . . . (Amos 5:25-27). In another chilling rhyme, 40 of the revelers were taken into captivity on their feast day.
