Amos 1:11-13
Legacy Standard Bible
11 Thus says Yahweh,
“For three transgressions of (A)Edom and for four
I will not turn back its punishment
Because he (B)pursued his brother with the sword
While he corrupted his compassion;
And his anger also (C)tore continually,
And he kept his wrath forever.
12 So I will send fire upon (D)Teman,
And it will consume the citadels of Bozrah.”
13 Thus says Yahweh,
“For three transgressions of the sons of (E)Ammon and for four
I will not turn back its punishment
Because they (F)ripped open the pregnant women of Gilead
In order to (G)enlarge their borders.
Amos 1:11-13
New King James Version
11 Thus says the Lord:
“For three transgressions of (A)Edom, and for four,
I will not turn away its punishment,
Because he pursued his (B)brother with the sword,
And cast off all pity;
His anger tore perpetually,
And he kept his wrath forever.
12 But (C)I will send a fire upon Teman,
Which shall devour the palaces of Bozrah.”
13 Thus says the Lord:
“For three transgressions of (D)the people of Ammon, and for four,
I will not turn away its punishment,
Because they ripped open the women with child in Gilead,
That they might enlarge their territory.
