New Testament

Amos 1:8-12 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

8. And I will cut off the inhabitants from Ashdod and the one who takes hold of the scepter of Ashkelon. I will also turn my hand against Ekron, and the remnant of the Philistines will perish,” says the Lord Yahweh.

9. Thus says Yahweh: “For three transgressions of Tyre and for four I will not revoke the punishment, because they delivered up a whole community to Edom and they did not remember the covenant of brotherhood!

10. So I will send a fire against the wall of Tyre and it will devour its citadel fortresses.”

11. Thus says Yahweh: “For three transgressions of Edom and for four I will not revoke the punishment, because he pursued his brother with the sword! He stifled his compassion and his anger tore them apart continually, and he kept his rage forever.

12. So I will send a fire against Teman and it will devour the citadel fortresses of Bozrah.”
