And him who holds ^H8551 the scepter ^H7626 from Beth-eden ^H1040;

So the people ^H5971 of Aram ^H758 will go ^H1540 into ^H1540 exile ^H1540 to Kir ^H7024,”

Says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068.

“For three ^H7969 transgressions ^H6588 of Gaza ^H5804 and for four ^H702

To deliver ^H5462 it up ^H5462 to Edom ^H123.

“For three ^H7969 transgressions ^H6588 of Edom ^H123 and for four ^H702

I will not turn ^H7725 back ^H7725 its punishment

Because ^H5921 he pursued ^H7291 his brother ^H251 with the sword ^H2719

While he corrupted ^H7843 his compassion ^H7356;

And his anger ^H639 also tore ^H2963 continually ^H5703,

And he kept ^H8104 his wrath ^H5678 forever ^H5331.

Thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068,

“For three ^H7969 transgressions ^H6588 of the sons ^H1121 of Ammon ^H5983 and for four ^H702

I will not turn ^H7725 back ^H7725 its punishment

Because ^H5921 they ripped ^H1234 open ^H1234 the pregnant ^H2030 women ^H2030 of Gilead ^H1568

In order ^H4616 to enlarge ^H7337 their borders ^H1366.

“For three ^H7969 transgressions ^H6588 of Judah ^H3063 and for four ^H702

I will not turn ^H7725 back ^H7725 its punishment

Because ^H5921 they rejected ^H3988 the law ^H8451 of Yahweh ^H3068

And have not kept ^H8104 His statutes ^H2706;

Their [fn]falsehood ^H3577 also has led ^H8582 them astray ^H8582,

That which ^H834 their fathers ^H1 walked ^H1980 after ^H310.

Thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068,

“For three ^H7969 transgressions ^H6588 of Israel ^H3478 and for four ^H702

I will not turn ^H7725 back its punishment

Because ^H5921 they sell ^H4376 the righteous ^H6662 for money ^H3701

And the needy ^H34 for a pair of sandals ^H5275.

“But you made ^H8248 the Nazirites ^H5139 drink ^H8248 wine ^H3196,

And you commanded ^H6680 the prophets ^H5030 saying ^H559, ‘You shall not prophesy ^H5012!’

Make ^H8085 it heard ^H8085 on the citadels ^H759 in Ashdod ^H795 and on the citadels ^H759 in the land ^H776 of Egypt ^H4714 and say ^H559, “Gather ^H622 yourselves on the mountains ^H2022 of Samaria ^H8111 and see ^H7200 the great ^H7227 confusions ^H4103 within ^H8432 her and the oppressions ^H6217 in her midst ^H7130.

Therefore ^H3651, thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Lord ^H136 Yahweh ^H3068,

“An adversary ^H6862, even one ^H5439 surrounding ^H5439 the land ^H776,

Will pull ^H3381 down ^H3381 your [fn]strength ^H5797 from you,

And your citadels ^H759 will be plundered ^H962.”

Thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068,

“Just ^H834 as the shepherd ^H7462 delivers ^H5337 from the lion’s ^H738 mouth ^H6310 a couple ^H8147 of legs ^H3767 or ^H176 a piece ^H915 of an ear ^H241,

So ^H3651 will the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 inhabiting ^H3427 Samaria ^H8111 be delivered ^H5337—

With the corner ^H6285 of a bed ^H4296 and the [fn]cover ^H1833 of a couch ^H6210!

For thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068 to the house ^H1004 of Israel ^H3478,

“Seek ^H1875 Me that you may live ^H2421.

Seek ^H1875 good ^H2896 and not evil ^H7451, in order that you may live ^H2421;

And thus ^H3651 may Yahweh ^H3068 God ^H430 of hosts ^H6635 be with you,

Just ^H834 as you have said ^H559!

Therefore ^H3651 thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068 God ^H430 of hosts ^H6635, the Lord ^H136,

“There is wailing ^H4553 in all ^H3605 the plazas ^H7339,

And in all ^H3605 the streets ^H2351 they say ^H559, ‘Alas ^H1930! Alas ^H1930!’

They also call ^H7121 the farmer ^H406 to mourning ^H60

And [fn]professional ^H3045 weepers ^H3045 to wailing ^H4553.

“And in all ^H3605 the vineyards ^H3754 there is wailing ^H4553

Because ^H3588 I will pass ^H5674 through the midst ^H7130 of you,” says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068.

You who are glad ^H8056 in [fn]Lo-debar ^H3810

[fn]And say ^H559, “Have we not by our own strength ^H2392 taken ^H3947 [fn]Karnaim ^H7161 for ourselves?”

Yahweh ^H3068 [fn]relented ^H5162 concerning this ^H2088.

“It shall not be,” said ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068.

“Lord ^H136 Yahweh ^H3068, please ^H4994 stop ^H2308!

[fn]How ^H4310 can Jacob ^H3290 rise ^H6965 up ^H6965, for he is small ^H6996?”

Yahweh ^H3068 [fn]relented ^H5162 concerning this ^H2088.

“This ^H1931 too ^H1571 shall not be,” said ^H559 Lord ^H136 Yahweh ^H3068.

“Behold ^H2009, I am about to put ^H7760 a plumb ^H594 line ^H594

In the midst ^H7130 of My people ^H5971 Israel ^H3478.

I will pass ^H5674 over them no ^H3808 longer ^H3254 H5750.

Then Amaziah ^H558, the priest ^H3548 of Bethel ^H1008, sent ^H7971 word to Jeroboam ^H3379 king ^H4428 of Israel ^H3478, saying ^H559, “Amos ^H5986 has conspired ^H7194 against ^H5921 you in the midst ^H7130 of the house ^H1004 of Israel ^H3478; the land ^H776 is ^H3201 unable ^H3808 H3201 to endure ^H3557 all ^H3605 his words ^H1697.

Then Amos ^H5986 answered ^H6030 and said ^H559 to Amaziah ^H558, “I am not a prophet ^H5030, nor ^H3808 am I the son ^H1121 of a prophet ^H5030; for I am a herdsman ^H951 and a [fn]grower ^H1103 of ^H1103 sycamore ^H8256 figs ^H1103.

“When ^H4970 will the new ^H2320 moon ^H2320 pass ^H5674 over ^H5674,

So that we may sell ^H7666 grain ^H7668,

And the sabbath ^H7676, that we may open ^H6605 the wheat ^H1250 market,

To make ^H6994 the [fn]bushel ^H374 smaller ^H6994 and the [fn]shekel ^H8255 bigger ^H1431,

And to cheat ^H5791 with a deceptive ^H4820 balance ^H3976,

“As for those who swear ^H7650 by the [fn]guilt ^H819 of Samaria ^H8111,

Who say ^H559, ‘As your god ^H430 lives ^H2416, O Dan ^H1835,’

And, ‘As the way ^H1870 of Beersheba ^H884 lives ^H2416,’

They will fall ^H5307 and not rise ^H6965 again ^H5750.”

“All ^H3605 the sinners ^H2400 of My people ^H5971 will die ^H4191 by the sword ^H2719,

Those who say ^H559, ‘The calamity ^H7451 will not overtake ^H5066 or confront ^H6923 us.’

“I will also plant ^H5193 them on their land ^H127,

And they will not again ^H5750 be uprooted ^H5428 from their land ^H127

Which ^H834 I have given ^H5414 them,”

Says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068 your God ^H430.
