Amos 1:6-8
English Standard Version Anglicised
6 Thus says the Lord:
(A)“For three transgressions of (B)Gaza,
and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,
because (C)they carried into exile a whole people
to deliver them up to Edom.
7 So I will send a fire upon the wall of (D)Gaza,
and it shall devour her strongholds.
8 I will cut off the inhabitants from (E)Ashdod,
and him who holds the sceptre from Ashkelon;
I will turn my hand against Ekron,
and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish,”
says the Lord God.
Amos 1:6-8
King James Version
6 Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of Gaza, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they carried away captive the whole captivity, to deliver them up to Edom:
7 But I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, which shall devour the palaces thereof:
8 And I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, and him that holdeth the sceptre from Ashkelon, and I will turn mine hand against Ekron: and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish, saith the Lord God.
