Parallel

Amos 5:11

King James Version (1769 Blayney revision, with Apocrypha) · Berean Standard Bible

Forasmuch therefore as your treading is upon the poor, and ye take from him burdens of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted pleasant vineyards (note: Heb. vineyards of desire), but ye shall not drink wine of them.
Therefore, because you trample on the poor and exact from him a tax of grain, you will never live in the stone houses you have built; you will never drink the wine from the lush vineyards you have planted.
