Amos 6:3

Ye that put far away the evil day Probably, with aversion: cf. the use of the word in Isaiah 66:5. They feel themselves secure against coming disaster (Amos 9:10), and will not hear of it, while at the same time they bring near the seat of violence, or, more literally, the sitting of violence: i.e. they prepare in their very midst a place where, instead of justice, violencemay sit enthroned. "They put from them the judgement of God (Amos 2:6 f. &c.), that they may exercise violence over His creatures" (Pusey).
