Amos 3:9-11

Expanded Bible

⁹ Announce this to the ·strong buildings [fortresses; palaces] of Ashdod [^Ca city in Philistia]
    and to the ·strong buildings [fortresses; palaces] of Egypt:
“·Come to [Assemble yourselves on] the mountains of Samaria,
    where you will see great ·confusion [chaos; tumult]
and ·people hurting others [oppression in her midst].”

¹⁰ “The people don’t know how to do what is right,” says the Lord.
    “Their ·strong buildings [fortresses; palaces] are filled with ·treasures they took by force from others [the spoils of violence and robbery].”
¹¹     So this is what the Lord God says:
“An enemy will ·take over [overrun; or encircle] the land
    and pull down your strongholds;
he will ·take the treasures out of [plunder] your ·strong buildings [fortresses; palaces].”
