Amos 1:2-4

Common English Bible

²     He said:
    The Lord roars from Zion.
        He shouts from Jerusalem;
        the pastures of the shepherds wither,
        and the top of Carmel dries up.

³     The Lord proclaims:
    For three crimes of Damascus,
        and for four, I won’t hold back the punishment,
    because they have harvested Gilead
        with sharp iron tools.
⁴     I will send down fire on the house of Hazael;
        it will devour the palaces of Ben-hadad.
