CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ The words of Amos, who came to be among the herdsmen from Tekoa, which he perceives concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah, king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam, son of Joash, king of Israel, two years before the earthquake." ² And he is saying, Yahweh from Zion will roar! And from Jerusalem will He give forth His voice! And the oases of the graziers shall mourn, and the summit of Carmel shall be dry." ³ Thus says Yahweh, Due to three transgressions of Damascus, and due to four, I will not turn it back, due to their threshing Gilead with iron spikes." ⁴ I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, and it shall devour the citadels of the son of Hadad." ⁵ And I will break the bar of Damascus, and cut off the dweller from the valley of Aven, and smite the upholder of the scepter from the house of Eden, and they will deport the people of Syria toward Kir, says Yahweh." ⁶ Thus says Yahweh, Due to three transgressions of Gaza, and due to four, I will not turn it back, due to their deporting a balanced deportation, to surrender it to Edom." ⁷ I will send a fire into the wall of Gaza, and it shall devour her citadels." ⁸ And I will cut off the dweller from Ashdod, and the upholder of the scepter from Ashkelon, and I will reverse My hand on Ekron, and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish, says my Lord Yahweh." ⁹ Thus says Yahweh, Due to three transgressions of Tyre, and due to four, I will not turn it back, due to their surrendering a balanced deportation to Edom, since they do not remember the covenant of brethren." ¹⁰ I will send a fire into the wall of Tyre, and it shall devour her citadels." ¹¹ Thus says Yahweh, Due to three transgressions of Edom, and due to four, I will not turn it back, due to his pursuing his brother with the sword, since he ruins his own compassions. His anger is preying into the future, and his rage, he keeps it permanently." ¹² I will send a fire into Teman, and it shall devour the citadels of Bozrah." ¹³ Thus says Yahweh, Due to three transgressions of the sons of Ammon, and due to four, I will not turn it back, due to their rending the pregnant of Gilead, that they may widen their boundary." ¹⁴ I will ravage with a fire into the wall of Rabbah, and it shall devour her citadels, with shouting in the day of battle, with a tempest in the day of a sweeping whirlwind, ¹⁵ and their king shall go into deportation, he and his priests and his chiefs together, says Yahweh."
