Amos 1:6-8
Legacy Standard Bible
6 Thus says Yahweh,
“For three transgressions of (A)Gaza and for four
I will not turn back its punishment
Because they took away into exile the whole community of exiles
To (B)deliver it up to Edom.
7 So I will send fire upon the wall of Gaza,
And it will consume her citadels.
8 I will also cut off the inhabitant from (C)Ashdod
And him who holds the scepter from (D)Ashkelon;
I will even turn My hand against Ekron,
And the remnant of the (E)Philistines will perish,”
Says Lord Yahweh.
Amos 1:6-8
New International Version
6 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Gaza,(A)
even for four, I will not relent.(B)
Because she took captive whole communities
and sold them to Edom,(C)
7 I will send fire on the walls of Gaza
that will consume her fortresses.
8 I will destroy the king[a] of Ashdod(D)
and the one who holds the scepter in Ashkelon.
I will turn my hand(E) against Ekron,
till the last of the Philistines(F) are dead,”(G)
says the Sovereign Lord.(H)
