Amos 1:2-4
Christian Standard Bible
2 He said:
The Lord roars(A) from Zion
and makes his voice heard from Jerusalem;
the pastures of the shepherds mourn,[a](B)
and the summit of Carmel(C) withers.
Judgment on Israel’s Neighbors
3 The Lord says:
I will not relent from punishing Damascus(D)
for three crimes, even four,(E)
because they threshed Gilead with iron sledges.
4 Therefore, I will send fire against Hazael’s palace,
and it will consume Ben-hadad’s(F) citadels.

Amos 1:2-4
King James Version
2 And 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.
3 Thus 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:
4 But I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, which shall devour the palaces of Benhadad.
