Amos 2:1-2
Expanded Bible

The People of Moab

2 This is what the Lord says:

“For ·the many [L three, even four; 1:3, 6, 9, 11, 13] ·crimes [sins; transgressions] of Moab,
    I will ·punish them [L not turn back/grant a reprieve].
They burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime [C desecrating a tomb was a serious offense in the ancient Near East].
2 So I will send fire on Moab
    that will ·destroy [consume; devour] the ·strong buildings [fortresses; palaces] of the city of Kerioth.
·The people of Moab [L Moab] will die in a great ·noise [uproar; tumult],
    in the middle of ·the sounds of war [shouting; war cries] and trumpets.
