Amos 2:2-4
Contemporary English Version
2 Now I will send fire to destroy
the fortresses of Kerioth.[a]
Battle shouts and trumpet blasts
will be heard
as I destroy Moab
3 with its king and leaders.
I, the Lord, have spoken!
Judgment on Judah
4 The Lord said:
I will punish Judah
for countless crimes,
and I won’t change my mind.
They have rejected my teachings
and refused to obey me.
They were led astray
by the same false gods
their ancestors worshiped.
