Amos 1:2-4
Contemporary English Version
2 and I said:
When the Lord roars
from Jerusalem,
pasturelands and Mount Carmel
dry up and turn brown.
Judgment on Syria
3 The Lord said:
I will punish Syria[a]
for countless crimes,
and I won’t change my mind.
They dragged logs with spikes[b]
over the people of Gilead.
4 Now I will burn down the palaces
and fortresses
of King Hazael
and of King Benhadad.[c]
