Amos 1:11-2:3
New American Standard Bible
11 This is what the Lord says:
“For three offenses of (A)Edom, and for four,
I will not revoke its punishment,
Because he (B)pursued his brother with the sword
And stifled his compassion;
His anger also (C)tore continually,
And he maintained his fury forever.
12 So I will send fire upon (D)Teman
And it will consume the citadels of Bozrah.”
13 This is what the Lord says:
“For three offenses of the sons of (E)Ammon, and for four,
I will not revoke its punishment,
Because they (F)ripped open the pregnant women of Gilead
In order to (G)enlarge their borders.
14 So I will kindle a fire on the wall of (H)Rabbah,
And it will consume her citadels
Amid [a](I)war cries on the day of battle,
And amid a (J)storm on the day of tempest.
15 Their (K)king will go into exile,
He and his princes together,” says the Lord.
Judgment on Moab
2 This is what the Lord says:
“For three offenses of (L)Moab, and for four,
I will not [b]revoke its punishment,
Because he (M)burned the bones of the king of Edom to lime.
2 So I will send fire upon Moab
And it will consume the citadels of (N)Kerioth;
And Moab will die amid the (O)panic of battle,
Amid war cries and the sound of a trumpet.
3 I will also eliminate the [c](P)judge from her midst
And slay all her (Q)leaders with him,” says the Lord.
Amos 1:11-2:3

Moab will go down in great tumult
amid war cries(Q) and the blast of the trumpet.(R)

and kill all her officials with him,”(T)

Amos 1:11-2:3
King James Version
11 Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he did pursue his brother with the sword, and did cast off all pity, and his anger did tear perpetually, and he kept his wrath for ever:
12 But I will send a fire upon Teman, which shall devour the palaces of Bozrah.
13 Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of the children of Ammon, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have ripped up the women with child of Gilead, that they might enlarge their border:
14 But I will kindle a fire in the wall of Rabbah, and it shall devour the palaces thereof, with shouting in the day of battle, with a tempest in the day of the whirlwind:
15 And their king shall go into captivity, he and his princes together, saith the Lord.
2 Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of Moab, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime:
2 But I will send a fire upon Moab, and it shall devour the palaces of Kirioth: and Moab shall die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet:
3 And I will cut off the judge from the midst thereof, and will slay all the princes thereof with him, saith the Lord.
