Amos 1:10-12

New International Reader's Version

“The people of Edom have sinned again and again.
    So I will judge them.
They chased Israel with swords
    that were ready to strike them down.
    They killed the women of the land.
They were angry all the time.
    Their anger was like a fire that blazed out.
    It could not be stopped.
¹² So I will send fire to destroy the city of Teman.
    It will burn up Bozrah’s forts.”
