Amos 5:14-15
14 Seek good and not evil, that you may live; so the Lord God of hosts will be with you, as you have spoken. 15 Hate evil, love good; establish justice in the gate. It may be that the Lord God of hosts will be gracious to the remnant of Joseph."

Romans 12:9 Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good."
We are to really despise want is evil if we are ever to become holy as God is and desires us to be. But this means we need to also really love what is good - not grudgingly say it is good, but enjoy and run after those things God says are good. This is walking with Him to "always do those things that please Him (Jn.8:29)." Do justly, love mercy, walk humbly with our God.
