Amos 1:2-4

International Children’s Bible

“The Lord will roar like a lion from Jerusalem.
    His loud voice will sound like a growl from Jerusalem.
The green pastures of the shepherds will become dry.
    Even Mount Carmel will dry up.”

“For the many crimes Damascus is doing,
    I will punish them.
They beat the people of Gilead
    with threshing boards that had iron teeth.
⁴ So I will send fire upon the house of Hazael.
    That fire will destroy the strong towers of Ben-Hadad.
