Amos 1:11-13
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
11 Thus says the Lord:
For three transgressions of Edom,
and for four, I will not revoke the punishment;[a]
because he pursued his brother with the sword
and cast off all pity;
he maintained his anger perpetually,[b]
and kept his wrath[c] for ever.
12 So I will send a fire on Teman,
and it shall devour the strongholds of Bozrah.
13 Thus says the Lord:
For three transgressions of the Ammonites,
and for four, I will not revoke the punishment;[d]
because they have ripped open pregnant women in Gilead
in order to enlarge their territory.
