Amos 3:9-11

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁹ Proclaim to the strongholds in Ashdod,
    and to the strongholds in the land of Egypt,
and say, ‘Assemble yourselves on Mount^[a] Samaria,
    and see what great tumults are within it,
    and what oppressions are in its midst.’
¹⁰ They do not know how to do right, says the Lord,
    those who store up violence and robbery in their strongholds.
¹¹ Therefore, thus says the Lord God:
An adversary shall surround the land,
    and strip you of your defence;
    and your strongholds shall be plundered.
