Amos 2:1-2
New Catholic Bible

Chapter 2

For Three Crimes of Moab

1 Thus says the Lord:

For three crimes of Moab, and for four,
    I will not revoke my decree.
Because they incinerated to ashes
    the bones of the king of Edom,[a]
2 I will send down fire on Moab
    to devour the palaces of Kerioth.
Moab will perish amid the uproar,
    amid war cries and the sound of trumpets.
