They hate him that rebuketh in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 10 is found in chapter 5 of Amos. The denunciation reaches those who hate the one who rebukes at the gate. The gate was a place of judgment and public life, so rejecting truth there means corrupting the very heart of community administration.

Aber sie sind dem gram, der sie im Tor straft, und halten den für einen Greuel, der heilsam lehrt.
Ellos aborrecieron en la puerta al reprensor, y al que hablaba lo recto abominaron.
Odian al que reprende en la puerta y aborrecen al que habla con integridad.
Ils haïssent celui qui les reprend à la porte, Et ils ont en horreur celui qui parle sincèrement.
Essi odiano nella porta chi li riprende, ed abbominano chi parla con integrità.
Odeiam na porta ao que os repreende, e abominam ao que fala sinceramente.
你們怨恨那在城門口斷是非的, 憎惡那說正直話的。
