Amos 2:8-10

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁹ Yet I destroyed the Amorite^(D) as Israel advanced;
his height^(E) was like the cedars,
and he was as sturdy as the oaks;
I destroyed his fruit^(F) above and his roots beneath.
¹⁰ And I brought you from the land of Egypt^(G)
and led you 40 years in the wilderness^(H)
in order to possess the land of the Amorite.^(I)
