Amos 1:2-4
World English Bible

2 He said:

“Yahweh[a] will roar from Zion,
    and utter his voice from Jerusalem;
and the pastures of the shepherds will mourn,
    and the top of Carmel will wither.”

3 Yahweh says:

“For three transgressions of Damascus, yes, for four,
    I will not turn away its punishment;
    because they have threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of iron;
4 but I will send a fire into the house of Hazael,
    and it will devour the palaces of Ben Hadad.
