1. The words of Amos, who was among the herdsmen from Tekoa, which he saw about Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
2. He said: Yahweh will roar from Zion and raise his voice from Jerusalem; the shepherds' pastures will mourn, and the top of Carmel will wither.
3. Thus says Yahweh: For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, I will not take it back, because they threshed Gilead with threshing sledges of iron.
4. I will send fire into the house of Hazael, and it will consume the palaces of Ben-Hadad.
5. I will break the bar of Damascus, cut off the inhabitant from the valley of Aven and the one holding the scepter from the house of Eden, and the people of Aram will go into captivity to Kir, says Yahweh.
6. Thus says Yahweh: For three transgressions of Gaza, and for four, I will not revoke it, because they carried away captive the complete exile to hand them over to Edom.
7. I will send fire on Gaza's wall, and it will consume her palaces.
8. I will cut off the dweller from Ashdod and the scepter holder from Ashkelon; I will bring my hand back against Ekron; and the remnant of the Philistines will perish, says the Lord Yahweh.
9. Thus says Yahweh: For three transgressions of Tyre, and for four, I will not revoke its punishment, because they handed over the complete exile to Edom, and did not remember the brotherly covenant.
10. I will send fire on the wall of Tyre, and it will consume its palaces.
11. Thus says Yahweh: For three transgressions of Edom, even for four, I will not turn away its punishment, because he pursued his brother with the sword, destroyed his mercy, his anger raged without end, and he harbored his wrath forever.
12. I will send fire on Teman, and it will consume the palaces of Bozrah.
13. Thus Yahweh says: For three rebellions of the sons of Ammon, and for four, I will not revoke their punishment, because they burst open the bellies of Gilead's pregnant women to widen their borders.
14. I will set fire to the wall of Rabbah, and it will consume its palaces amid shouting on the day of battle, amid storm on the day of the whirlwind.
15. And their king will go into captivity, he and his princes together, says Yahweh.
