Amos 1:11-2:5
New International Version
Amos 1:11-2:5
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)
2 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Moab,(N)
even for four, I will not relent.
Because he burned to ashes(O)
the bones of Edom’s king,
2 I will send fire on Moab
that will consume the fortresses of Kerioth.[b](P)
Moab will go down in great tumult
amid war cries(Q) and the blast of the trumpet.(R)
3 I will destroy her ruler(S)
and kill all her officials with him,”(T)
says the Lord.(U)
4 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Judah,(V)
even for four, I will not relent.
Because they have rejected the law(W) of the Lord
and have not kept his decrees,(X)
because they have been led astray(Y) by false gods,[c](Z)
the gods[d] their ancestors followed,(AA)
5 I will send fire(AB) on Judah
that will consume the fortresses(AC) of Jerusalem.(AD)”
Amos 1:11-2:5
King James Version
Amos 1:11-2:5
King James Version
11 Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he did pursue his brother with the sword, and did cast off all pity, and his anger did tear perpetually, and he kept his wrath for ever:
12 But I will send a fire upon Teman, which shall devour the palaces of Bozrah.
13 Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of the children of Ammon, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have ripped up the women with child of Gilead, that they might enlarge their border:
14 But I will kindle a fire in the wall of Rabbah, and it shall devour the palaces thereof, with shouting in the day of battle, with a tempest in the day of the whirlwind:
15 And their king shall go into captivity, he and his princes together, saith the Lord.
2 Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of Moab, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime:
2 But I will send a fire upon Moab, and it shall devour the palaces of Kirioth: and Moab shall die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet:
3 And I will cut off the judge from the midst thereof, and will slay all the princes thereof with him, saith the Lord.
4 Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have despised the law of the Lord, and have not kept his commandments, and their lies caused them to err, after the which their fathers have walked:
5 But I will send a fire upon Judah, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem.
