Amos 1:3-5
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
3 Thus says the Lord:
For three transgressions of Damascus,
and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,[a]
because they have threshed Gilead
with threshing sledges of iron.(A)
4 So I will send a fire on the house of Hazael,
and it shall devour the strongholds of Ben-hadad.(B)
5 I will break the gate bars of Damascus
and cut off the inhabitants from the Valley of Aven
and the one who holds the scepter from Beth-eden,
and the people of Aram shall go into exile to Kir,
says the Lord.(C)
