Amos 1:11-13
Revised Standard Version
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,
and his anger tore perpetually,
and he kept his wrath[b] for ever.
12 So I will send a fire upon 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;[c]
because they have ripped up women with child in Gilead,
that they might enlarge their border.
