Amos 1:2-4
Revised Standard Version
2 And he said:
Judgment on Israel’s Neighbors
“The Lord roars from Zion,
and utters his voice from Jerusalem;
the pastures of the shepherds mourn,
and the top of Carmel withers.”
3 Thus says the Lord:
“For three transgressions of Damascus,
and for four, I will not revoke the punishment;[a]
because they have threshed Gilead
with threshing sledges of iron.
4 So I will send a fire upon the house of Haz′ael,
and it shall devour the strongholds of Ben-ha′dad.

3 Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of iron:
4 But I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, which shall devour the palaces of Benhadad.
