The words{H1697} of Amos,{H5986} who was among the herdsmen{H5349} of Tekoa,{H8620} which he saw{H2372} concerning Israel{H3478} in the days{H3117} of Uzziah{H5818} king{H4428} of Judah,{H3063} and in the days{H3117} of Jeroboam{H3379} the son{H1121} of Joash{H3101} king{H4428} of Israel,{H3478} two years{H8141} before{H6440} the earthquake.{H7494}

And he said,{H559} Jehovah{H3068} will roar{H7580} from Zion,{H6726} and utter{H5414} his voice{H6963} from Jerusalem;{H3389} and the pastures{H4999} of the shepherds{H7462} shall mourn,{H56} and the top{H7218} of Carmel{H3760} shall wither.{H3001}

Thus saith{H559} Jehovah:{H3068} For three{H7969} transgressions{H6588} of Damascus,{H1834} yea, for four,{H702} I will not turn away{H7725} the punishment thereof; because they have threshed{H1758} Gilead{H1568} with threshing instruments{H2742} of iron:{H1270}

but I will send{H7971} a fire{H784} into the house{H1004} of Hazael,{H2371} and it shall devour{H398} the palaces{H759} of Ben-hadad.{H1130}

And I will break{H7665} the bar{H1280} of Damascus,{H1834} and cut off{H3772} the inhabitant{H3427} from the valley{H1237} of Aven,{H206} and him that holdeth{H8551} the sceptre{H7626} from the house{H1004} of Eden;{H5731} and the people{H5971} of Syria{H758} shall go into captivity{H1540} unto Kir,{H7024} saith{H559} Jehovah.{H3068}

Thus saith{H559} Jehovah:{H3068} For three{H7969} transgressions{H6588} of Gaza,{H5804} yea, for four,{H702} I will not turn away{H7725} the punishment thereof; because they carried away captive{H1540} the whole{H8003} people,{H1546} to deliver them up{H5462} to Edom.{H123}

But I will send{H7971} a fire{H784} on the wall{H2346} of Gaza,{H5804} and it shall devour{H398} the palaces{H759} thereof.

And I will cut off{H3772} the inhabitant{H3427} from Ashdod,{H795} and him that holdeth{H8551} the sceptre{H7626} from Ashkelon;{H831} and I will turn{H7725} my hand{H3027} against Ekron;{H6138} and the remnant{H7611} of the Philistines{H6430} shall perish,{H6} saith{H559} the Lord{H136} Jehovah.{H3069}

Thus saith{H559} Jehovah:{H3068} For three{H7969} transgressions{H6588} of Tyre,{H6865} yea, for four,{H702} I will not turn away{H7725} the punishment thereof; because they delivered up{H5462} the whole{H8003} people{H1546} to Edom,{H123} and remembered{H2142} not the brotherly{H251} covenant:{H1285}

but I will send{H7971} a fire{H784} on the wall{H2346} of Tyre,{H6865} and it shall devour{H398} the palaces{H759} thereof.

Thus saith{H559} Jehovah:{H3068} For three{H7969} transgressions{H6588} of Edom,{H123} yea, for four,{H702} I will not turn away{H7725} the punishment thereof; because he did pursue{H7291} his brother{H251} with the sword,{H2719} and did cast off{H7843} all pity,{H7356} and his anger{H639} did tear{H2963} perpetually,{H5703} and he kept{H8104} his wrath{H5678} for ever:{H5331}

but I will send{H7971} a fire{H784} upon Teman,{H8487} and it shall devour{H398} the palaces{H759} of Bozrah.{H1224}

Thus saith{H559} Jehovah:{H3068} For three{H7969} transgressions{H6588} of the children{H1121} of Ammon,{H5983} yea, for four,{H702} I will not turn away{H7725} the punishment thereof; because they have ripped up{H1234} the women with child{H2030} of Gilead,{H1568} that they may enlarge{H7337} their border.{H1366}

But I will kindle{H3341} a fire{H784} in the wall{H2346} of Rabbah,{H7237} and it shall devour{H398} the palaces{H759} thereof, with shouting{H8643} in the day{H3117} of battle,{H4421} with a tempest{H5591} in the day{H3117} of the whirlwind;{H5492}

and their king{H4428} shall go{H1980} into captivity,{H1473} he and his princes{H8269} together,{H3162} saith{H559} Jehovah.{H3068}
