Amos 1:3-5

Common English Bible

³     The Lord proclaims:
    For three crimes of Damascus,
        and for four, I won’t hold back the punishment,
    because they have harvested Gilead
        with sharp iron tools.
⁴     I will send down fire on the house of Hazael;
        it will devour the palaces of Ben-hadad.
⁵     I will break the fortified gates of Damascus,
        and eliminate the people from the Aven Valley,
    including the one who rules from Beth-eden;
        the people of Aram will be forced to live in Kir,
says the Lord.
