ગુજરાતીઆમોસ ૨:૭
તેઓ ગરીબોના માથા પરની પૃથ્વીની ધૂળને માટે તલપે છે, અને નમ્ર લોકોને સાચા માર્ગમાંથી દૂર ધકેલી દે છે. પિતા અને પુત્ર એક જ સ્ત્રી પાસે ગયા છે અને મારા પવિત્ર નામ પર બટ્ટો લગાડ્યો છે.
हिन्दीआमोस २:७
वे कंगालों के सिर पर की धूल का भी लालच करते, और नम्र लोगों को मार्ग से हटा देते हैं; और बाप-बेटा दोनों एक ही कुमारी के पास जाते हैं, जिससे मेरे पवित्र नाम को अपवित्र ठहराएँ।
