Amos 1

1 Amos sheweth God's judgment upon Syria, 6 upon the Philistines, 9 upon Tyrus, 11 upon Edom, 13 upon Ammon.

 1:1 ¶ The words 1697 of Amos, 5986 who x834 was x1961 among the herdmen 5349 of Tekoa, 8620 x4480 which x834 he saw 2372 z8804 concerning x5921 Israel 3478 in the days 3117 of Uzziah 5818 king 4428 of Judah, 3063 and in the days 3117 of Jeroboam 3379 the son 1121 of Joash 3101 king 4428 of Israel, 3478 two years 8141 before 6440 the earthquake. 7494

 1:2 And he said, 559 z8799 The LORD 3068 will roar 7580 z8799 from Zion, 6726 x4480 and utter 5414 z8799 his voice 6963 from Jerusalem; 3389 x4480 and the habitations 4999 of the shepherds 7462 z8802 shall mourn, 56 z8804 and the top 7218 of Carmel 3760 shall wither. 3001 z8804

 1:3 Thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 the LORD; 3068 For x5921 three 7969 transgressions 6588 of Damascus, 1834 and for x5921 four, 702 I will not x3808 turn away 7725 z8686 [the punishment] thereof; because x5921 they have threshed 1758 z8800 x853 Gilead 1568 with threshing instruments 2742 of iron: 1270

 1:4 But I will send 7971 z8765 a fire 784 into the house 1004 of Hazael, 2371 which shall devour 398 z8804 the palaces 759 of Benhadad. 1130

 1:5 I will break 7665 z8804 also the bar 1280 of Damascus, 1834 and cut off 3772 z8689 the inhabitant 3427 z8802 from the plain 1237 x4480 of Aven, 206 and him that holdeth 8551 z8802 the sceptre 7626 from the house y1004 of Eden: 1040 y5731 z8677 x4480 and the people 5971 of Syria 758 shall go into captivity 1540 z8804 unto Kir, 7024 saith 559 z8804 the LORD. 3068

 1:6 ¶ Thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 the LORD; 3068 For x5921 three 7969 transgressions 6588 of Gaza, 5804 and for x5921 four, 702 I will not x3808 turn away 7725 z8686 [the punishment] thereof; because x5921 they carried away captive 1540 z8687 the whole 8003 captivity, 1546 to deliver [them] up 5462 z8687 to Edom: 123

 1:7 But I will send 7971 z8765 a fire 784 on the wall 2346 of Gaza, 5804 which shall devour 398 z8804 the palaces 759 thereof:

 1:8 And I will cut off 3772 z8689 the inhabitant 3427 z8802 from Ashdod, 795 x4480 and him that holdeth 8551 z8802 the sceptre 7626 from Ashkelon, 831 x4480 and I will turn 7725 z8689 mine hand 3027 against x5921 Ekron: 6138 and the remnant 7611 of the Philistines 6430 shall perish, 6 z8804 saith 559 z8804 the Lord 136 GOD. 3069

 1:9 ¶ Thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 the LORD; 3068 For x5921 three 7969 transgressions 6588 of Tyrus, 6865 and for x5921 four, 702 I will not x3808 turn away 7725 z8686 [the punishment] thereof; because x5921 they delivered up 5462 z8687 the whole 8003 captivity 1546 to Edom, 123 and remembered 2142 z8804 not x3808 the brotherly 251 covenant: 1285

 1:10 But I will send 7971 z8765 a fire 784 on the wall 2346 of Tyrus, 6865 which shall devour 398 z8804 the palaces 759 thereof.

 1:11 ¶ Thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 the LORD; 3068 For x5921 three 7969 transgressions 6588 of Edom, 123 and for x5921 four, 702 I will not x3808 turn away 7725 z8686 [the punishment] thereof; because x5921 he did pursue 7291 z8800 his brother 251 with the sword, 2719 and did cast off 7843 z8765 all pity, 7356 and his anger 639 did tear 2963 z8799 perpetually, 5703 and he kept 8104 z8804 his wrath 5678 for ever: 5331

 1:12 But I will send 7971 z8765 a fire 784 upon Teman, 8487 which shall devour 398 z8804 the palaces 759 of Bozrah. 1224

 1:13 ¶ Thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 the LORD; 3068 For x5921 three 7969 transgressions 6588 of the children 1121 of Ammon, 5983 and for x5921 four, 702 I will not x3808 turn away 7725 z8686 [the punishment] thereof; because x5921 they have ripped up 1234 z8800 the women with child 2030 of Gilead, 1568 that x4616 they might enlarge 7337 z8687 x853 their border: 1366

 1:14 But I will kindle 3341 z8689 a fire 784 in the wall 2346 of Rabbah, 7237 and it shall devour 398 z8804 the palaces 759 thereof, with shouting 8643 in the day 3117 of battle, 4421 with a tempest 5591 in the day 3117 of the whirlwind: 5492

 1:15 And their king 4428 shall go 1980 z8804 into captivity, 1473 he x1931 and his princes 8269 together, 3162 saith 559 z8804 the LORD. 3068
