amos 5:24 But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.

amos 5:24 "But let justice roll down like waters And righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.

24. judgment--justice.
run down--literally, "roll," that is, flow abundantly (Isa 48:18). Without the desire to fulfil righteousness in the offerer, the sacrifice is hateful to God (1Sa 15:22; Ps 66:18; Ho 6:6; Mic 6:8).

amos 5:24 "But let justice roll down like waters And righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.
