Amos 1:12-14
New Catholic Bible
12 I will send down fire on Teman
to devour the palaces of Bozrah.
For Three Crimes of Ammon
13 Thus says the Lord:
For three crimes of the Ammonites, and for four,
I will not revoke my decree.
Because they ripped open the pregnant women in Gilead
in their determination to enlarge their territory,
14 I will send down fire upon the walls of Rabbah[a]
to devour its palaces
amid war cries on the day of battle
and violent storms on the day of the whirlwind.
