Amos 2:1 in context

  1. 1Yahweh says:
    “For three transgressions of Moab, yes, for four,
    I will not turn away its punishment;
    because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime;
  2. 2but I will send a fire on Moab,
    and it will devour the palaces of Kerioth;
    and Moab will die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet;
  3. 3and I will cut off the judge from among them,
    and will kill all its princes with him,”
    says Yahweh.
