Seek mercy in and by the Lord, so that you may escape divine wrath breaking forth among us...

"For thus saith the Lord unto the house of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live:But seek not Bethel, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beersheba: for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall come to nought." Amos 5:4-5, KJV
