Amos, Chapter 1

¹ The words of Amos, one of the shepherds of Tekoa-what he saw concerning Israel two years before the earthquake, when Uzziah was king of Judah and Jeroboam son of Jehoash¹ was king of Israel.

² He said:

³ This is what the LORD says:

⁴ I will send fire upon the house of Hazael
that will consume the fortresses of Ben-Hadad.

⁵ I will break down the gate of Damascus;
I will destroy the king who is in² the Valley of Aven³
and the one who holds the scepter in Beth Eden.
The people of Aram will go into exile to Kir,"
says the LORD .

⁶ This is what the LORD says:

⁷ I will send fire upon the walls of Gaza
that will consume her fortresses.

⁸ I will destroy the king⁴ of Ashdod
and the one who holds the scepter in Ashkelon.
I will turn my hand against Ekron,
till the last of the Philistines is dead,"
says the Sovereign LORD .

⁹ This is what the LORD says:

¹⁰ I will send fire upon the walls of Tyre
that will consume her fortresses."

¹¹ This is what the LORD says:

¹² I will send fire upon Teman
that will consume the fortresses of Bozrah."

¹³ This is what the LORD says:

¹⁴ I will set fire to the walls of Rabbah
that will consume her fortresses
amid war cries on the day of battle,
amid violent winds on a stormy day.

¹⁵ Her king⁵ will go into exile,
he and his officials together,"
says the LORD .
