Book 30 Amos Chapter 002

 

002:001Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Moab, and for
four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he
burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime:

 

002:002But I will send a fire upon Moab, and it shall devour the
palaces of Kirioth: and Moab shall die with tumult, with
shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet:

 

002:003And I will cut off the judge from the midst thereof, and will
slay all the princes thereof with him, saith the LORD.

 

002:004Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Judah, and
for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because
they have despised the law of the LORD, and have not kept his
commandments, and their lies caused them to err, after the
which their fathers have walked:

 

002:005But I will send a fire upon Judah, and it shall devour the
palaces of Jerusalem.

 

002:006Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Israel, and
for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because
they sold the righteous for silver, and the poor for a pair of
shoes;

 

002:007That pant after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor,
and turn aside the way of the meek: and a man and his father
will go in unto the same maid, to profane my holy name:

 

002:008And they lay themselves down upon clothes laid to pledge by
every altar, and they drink the wine of the condemned in the
house of their god.

 

002:009Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like
the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I
destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.

 

002:010Also I brought you up from the land of Egypt, and led you
forty years through the wilderness, to possess the land of the
Amorite.

 

002:011And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young
men for Nazarites. Is it not even thus, O ye children of
Israel? saith the LORD.

 

002:012But ye gave the Nazarites wine to drink; and commanded the
prophets, saying, Prophesy not.

 

002:013Behold, I am pressed under you, as a cart is pressed that is
full of sheaves.

 

002:014Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the
strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the
mighty deliver himself:

 

002:015Neither shall he stand that handleth the bow; and he that is
swift of foot shall not deliver himself: neither shall he that
rideth the horse deliver himself.

 

002:016And he that is courageous among the mighty shall flee away
naked in that day, saith the LORD.
