Amos 1 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

The words ^H1697 of Amos ^H5986, who ^H834 was among the sheepherders ^H5349 from Tekoa ^H8620, which ^H834 he saw ^H2372 in visions concerning ^H5921 Israel ^H3478 in the days ^H3117 of Uzziah ^H5818 king ^H4428 of Judah ^H3063, and in the days ^H3117 of Jeroboam ^H3379 son ^H1121 of Joash ^H3060, king ^H4428 of Israel ^H3478, two years ^H8141 before ^H6440 the earthquake ^H7494.

And he said ^H559,

“The LORD ^H3068 roars ^H7580 from Zion ^H6726,

And from Jerusalem ^H3389 He utters ^H5414 His voice ^H6963;

And the shepherds’ ^H7462 pasture ^H4999 grounds ^H4999 mourn ^H56,

And the [fn]summit ^H7218 of Carmel ^H3760 dries ^H3001 up ^H3001.”

This ^H3541 is ^H3541 what ^H3541 the LORD ^H3068 says ^H559:

“For three ^H7969 offenses ^H6588 of Damascus ^H1834, and for four ^H702,

I will not [fn]revoke ^H7725 its punishment,

Because ^H5921 they threshed ^H1758 Gilead ^H1568 with iron ^H1270 sledges ^H2742.

“So I will send ^H7971 fire ^H784 upon the house ^H1004 of Hazael ^H2371,

And it will consume ^H398 the citadels ^H759 of Ben-hadad ^H1130.

“I will also break ^H7665 the gate bar ^H1280 of Damascus ^H1834,

And eliminate ^H3772 every inhabitant ^H3427 from the [fn]Valley ^H1237 of Aven ^H206,

As well as him who holds ^H8551 the scepter ^H7626, from Beth-eden ^H1040;

So the people ^H5971 of Aram ^H758 will be exiled ^H1540 to Kir ^H7024,”

Says ^H559 the LORD ^H3068.

This ^H3541 is ^H3541 what ^H3541 the LORD ^H3068 says ^H559:

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

I will not revoke ^H7725 its punishment,

Because ^H5921 they led ^H1540 into ^H1540 exile ^H1540 an entire ^H8003 population ^H1546

To turn ^H5462 them over ^H5462 to Edom ^H123.

“So I will send ^H7971 fire ^H784 on the wall ^H2346 of Gaza ^H5804

And it will consume ^H398 her citadels ^H759.

“I will also eliminate ^H3772 every inhabitant ^H3427 from Ashdod ^H795,

As well as him who holds ^H8551 the scepter ^H7626, from Ashkelon ^H831;

And I will direct ^H7725 My [fn]power ^H3027 against ^H5921 Ekron ^H6138,

And the remnant ^H7611 of the Philistines ^H6430 will perish ^H6,”

Says ^H559 the Lord ^H136 [fn]GOD ^H3068.

This ^H3541 is ^H3541 what ^H3541 the LORD ^H3068 says ^H559:

“For three ^H7969 offenses ^H6588 of Tyre ^H6865, and for four ^H702,

I will not revoke ^H7725 its punishment,

Because ^H5921 they turned ^H5462 an entire ^H8003 population ^H1546 over ^H5462 to Edom ^H123

And did not remember ^H2142 the covenant ^H1285 of [fn]brotherhood ^H251.

“So I will send ^H7971 fire ^H784 on the wall ^H2346 of Tyre ^H6865,

And it will consume ^H398 her citadels ^H759.”

This ^H3541 is ^H3541 what ^H3541 the LORD ^H3068 says ^H559:

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

I will not revoke ^H7725 its punishment,

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

And stifled ^H7843 his compassion ^H7356;

His anger ^H639 also tore ^H2963 continually ^H5703,

And he maintained ^H8104 his fury ^H5678 forever ^H5331.

“So I will send ^H7971 fire ^H784 upon Teman ^H8487

And it will consume ^H398 the citadels ^H759 of Bozrah ^H1224.”

This ^H3541 is ^H3541 what ^H3541 the LORD ^H3068 says ^H559:

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

I will not revoke ^H7725 its punishment,

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

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

“So I will kindle ^H3341 a fire ^H784 on the wall ^H2346 of Rabbah ^H7237,

And it will consume ^H398 her citadels ^H759

Amid [fn]war ^H8643 cries ^H8643 on the day ^H3117 of battle ^H4421,

And amid a storm ^H5591 on the day ^H3117 of tempest ^H5492.

“Their king ^H4428 will go ^H1980 into exile ^H1473,

He and his princes ^H8269 together ^H3162,” says ^H559 the LORD ^H3068.
