Amos 1:7-9
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

7 So I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza,
    and it shall devour its strongholds.
8 I will cut off the inhabitants from Ashdod
    and the one who holds the scepter from Ashkelon;
I will turn my hand against Ekron,
    and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish,
            says the Lord God.(A)

9 Thus says the Lord:
For three transgressions of Tyre,
    and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,[a]
because they delivered entire communities over to Edom
    and did not remember the covenant of kinship.(B)
