1Amos, the goat herder from Tekoa, got some serious vibes about Israel during Uzziah's reign and Jeroboam's time, right before that wild earthquake popped off.

2He said, "The Lord's gonna roar from Zion, and his voice is gonna hit hard in Jerusalem; the shepherds are gonna be sad, and Carmel's gonna be looking dry, fr."

3The Lord's like, "For three mess-ups from Damascus and four, I ain't letting them slide; they threshed Gilead with iron tools, no cap."

4"But I'm sending a fire into Hazael's crib, and it’s gonna wreck Ben-hadad's palaces, periodt."

5"I'm breaking the bar of Damascus and kicking out the people from Aven, plus taking away the rizz from Eden’s crew; Syria's gonna be in captivity, says the Lord."

6"For three transgressions from Gaza and four, I ain't holding back the punishment; they took everyone captive and handed them over to Edom, that's sus."

7"But I'm sending a fire on Gaza's wall, and it's gonna devour their palaces, straight up."

8"I'm cutting off the peeps from Ashdod and taking the scepter from Ashkelon, and I'm coming for Ekron too; the Philistines are gonna be done for, says the Lord God."

9"For three transgressions of Tyrus and four, I won't turn away the punishment; they gave up the whole crew to Edom and forgot the brotherly bond, fr."

10"But I'm sending a fire on Tyrus's wall, and it's gonna devour their palaces, no cap."

11"For three transgressions of Edom and four, I won't let it slide; he chased his bro with a sword, showed no mercy, and kept that anger on lock forever."

12"But I'm lighting a fire on Teman, and it's gonna wreck Bozrah's palaces."

13"For three transgressions of Ammon's kids and four, I ain't turning away the punishment; they ripped up pregnant women in Gilead to expand their territory, savage."

14"But I'm igniting a fire in Rabbah's wall, and it’s gonna devour their palaces with hype during battle and chaos in the whirlwind."

15"Their king's heading into captivity, along with his squad, says the Lord."

1The words of Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.

2And he said, The Lord will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the habitations of the shepherds shall mourn, and the top of Carmel shall wither.

3Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of iron:

4But I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, which shall devour the palaces of Ben–hadad.

5I will break also the bar of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitant from the plain of Aven, and him that holdeth the sceptre from the house of Eden: and the people of Syria shall go into captivity unto Kir, saith the Lord.

6Thus 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:

7But I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, which shall devour the palaces thereof:

8And 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.

9Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of Tyrus, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they delivered up the whole captivity to Edom, and remembered not the brotherly covenant:

10But I will send a fire on the wall of Tyrus, which shall devour the palaces thereof.

11Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he did pursue his brother with the sword, and did cast off all pity, and his anger did tear perpetually, and he kept his wrath for ever:

12But I will send a fire upon Teman, which shall devour the palaces of Bozrah.

13Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of the children of Ammon, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have ripped up the women with child of Gilead, that they might enlarge their border:

14But I will kindle a fire in the wall of Rabbah, and it shall devour the palaces thereof, with shouting in the day of battle, with a tempest in the day of the whirlwind:

15And their king shall go into captivity, he and his princes together, saith the Lord.
