Amos 1:11-15
English Standard Version
11 Thus says the Lord:
(A)“For three transgressions of (B)Edom,
and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,
(C)because he pursued his brother with the sword
(D)and cast off all pity,
(E)and his anger tore perpetually,
(F)and he kept his wrath forever.
12 So I will send a fire upon (G)Teman,
and it shall devour the strongholds of (H)Bozrah.”
13 Thus says the Lord:
(I)“For three transgressions of the (J)Ammonites,
and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,
because (K)they have ripped open pregnant women in (L)Gilead,
that they might enlarge their border.
14 So I will kindle a fire in the wall of (M)Rabbah,
(N)and it shall devour her strongholds,
with shouting on the day of battle,
(O)with a tempest in the day of the whirlwind;
15 and (P)their king shall go into exile,
he and his princes[a] together,”
says the Lord.

New International Version
11 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Edom,(A)
even for four, I will not relent.
Because he pursued his brother with a sword(B)
and slaughtered the women of the land,
because his anger raged continually
and his fury flamed unchecked,(C)
12 I will send fire on Teman(D)
that will consume the fortresses of Bozrah.(E)”
13 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Ammon,(F)
even for four, I will not relent.
Because he ripped open the pregnant women(G) of Gilead
in order to extend his borders,
14 I will set fire to the walls of Rabbah(H)
that will consume(I) her fortresses
amid war cries(J) on the day of battle,
amid violent winds(K) on a stormy day.
15 Her king[a] will go into exile,
he and his officials together,(L)”
says the Lord.(M)
