Amos 2:1 (NIV) New International Version

1 This is what the LORD says: "For three sins of Moab, even for four, I will not turn back my wrath. Because he burned, as if to lime, the bones of Edom's king,
2 I will send fire upon Moab that will consume the fortresses of Kerioth. Moab will go down in great tumult amid war cries and the blast of the trumpet.
3 I will destroy her ruler and kill all her officials with him," says the LORD.
4 This is what the LORD says: "For three sins of Judah, even for four, I will not turn back my wrath. Because they have rejected the law of the LORD and have not kept his decrees, because they have been led astray by false gods, the gods their ancestors followed,
5 I will send fire upon Judah that will consume the fortresses of Jerusalem."
6 This is what the LORD says: "For three sins of Israel, even for four, I will not turn back my wrath. They sell the righteous for silver, and the needy for a pair of sandals.
7 They trample on the heads of the poor as upon the dust of the ground and deny justice to the oppressed. Father and son use the same girl and so profane my holy name.
8 They lie down beside every altar on garments taken in pledge. In the house of their god they drink wine taken as fines.
9 "I destroyed the Amorite before them, though he was tall as the cedars and strong as the oaks. I destroyed his fruit above and his roots below.
10 "I brought you up out of Egypt, and I led you for forty years in the desert to give you the land of the Amorites.
11 I also raised up prophets from among your sons and Nazirites from among your young men. Is this not true, people of Israel?" declares the LORD.
12 "But you made the Nazirites drink wine and commanded the prophets not to prophesy.
13 "Now then, I will crush you as a cart crushes when loaded with grain.
14 The swift will not escape, the strong will not muster their strength, and the warrior will not save his life.
15 The archer will not stand his ground, the fleet-footed soldier will not get away, and the horseman will not save his life.
16 Even the bravest warriors will flee naked on that day," declares the LORD.
1 Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS ; For H5921 PREP three H7969 NFS transgressions H6588 of Moab H4124 , and for H5921 PREP four H702 MMS , I will not H3808 NADV turn away H7725 the punishment thereof ; because H5921 PREP he burned H8313 the bones H6106 of the king H4428 NMS of Edom H123 into lime H7875 :
2 But I will send H7971 a fire H784 CMS upon Moab H4124 , and it shall devour H398 the palaces H759 of Kerioth H7152 : and Moab H4124 shall die H4191 with tumult H7588 , with shouting H8643 B-NFS , and with the sound H6963 B-NMS of the trumpet H7782 NMS :
3 And I will cut off H3772 the judge H8199 from the midst H7130 thereof , and will slay H2026 all H3605 W-CMS the princes H8269 thereof with H5973 PREP-3MS him , saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
4 Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS ; For H5921 PREP three H7969 NFS transgressions H6588 of Judah H3063 , and for H5921 PREP four H702 MMS , I will not H3808 NADV turn away H7725 the punishment thereof ; because H5921 PREP they have despised H3988 the law H8451 CFS of the LORD H3068 EDS , and have not H3808 NADV kept H8104 his commandments H2706 , and their lies H3577 caused them to err H8582 , after H310 the which H834 RPRO their fathers H1 CMP-3MP have walked H1980 VQQ3MP :
5 But I will send H7971 a fire H784 CMS upon Judah H3063 , and it shall devour H398 the palaces H759 of Jerusalem H3389 .
6 Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS ; For H5921 PREP three H7969 NFS transgressions H6588 of Israel H3478 , and for H5921 PREP four H702 MMS , I will not H3808 NADV turn away H7725 the punishment thereof ; because H5921 PREP they sold H4376 the righteous H6662 AMS for silver H3701 BD-NMS , and the poor H34 W-AMS for H5668 B-NMS a pair of shoes H5275 ;
7 That pant H7602 after H5921 PREP the dust H6083 CMS of the earth H776 GFS on the head H7218 B-NMS of the poor H1800 JMP , and turn aside H5186 VHY3MP the way H1870 W-NMS of the meek H6035 : and a man H376 W-NMS and his father H1 will go in H1980 unto H413 PREP the same maid H5291 , to H4616 L-CONJ profane H2490 my holy H6944 name H8034 CMS :
8 And they lay themselves down H5186 VHY3MP upon H5921 W-PREP clothes H899 laid to pledge H2254 by H681 every H3605 NMS altar H4196 NMS , and they drink H8354 the wine H3196 W-CMS of the condemned H6064 in the house H1004 CMS of their god H430 .
9 Yet destroyed H8045 I H595 W-PPRO-1MS the Amorite H567 before H6440 M-CMP-3MP them , whose H834 RPRO height H1363 was like the height H1363 of the cedars H730 , and he H1931 PPRO-3MS was strong H2634 as the oaks H437 ; yet I destroyed H8045 his fruit H6529 NMS-3MS from above H4605 , and his roots H8328 from beneath H8478 .
10 Also I H595 W-PPRO-1MS brought you up H5927 from the land H776 M-NFS of Egypt H4714 , and led H1980 you forty H705 MMP years H8141 NFS through the wilderness H4057 , to possess H3423 the land H776 GFS of the Amorite H567 .
11 And I raised up H6965 of your sons H1121 for prophets H5030 , and of your young men H970 for Nazarites H5139 . Is it not H369 ADV even H637 CONJ thus H2063 DPRO , O ye children H1121 of Israel H3478 ? saith H5002 the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
12 But ye gave the Nazarites H5139 wine H3196 to drink H8248 ; and commanded H6680 the prophets H5030 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Prophesy H5012 not H3808 NADV .
13 Behold H2009 IJEC , I H595 PPRO-1MS am pressed H5781 under H8478 you , as H834 K-RPRO a cart H5699 is pressed H5781 that is full of H4392 sheaves H5995 .
14 Therefore the flight H4498 shall perish H6 from the swift H7031 , and the strong H2389 shall not H3808 NADV strengthen H553 his force H3581 CMS-3MS , neither H3808 NADV shall the mighty H1368 deliver H4422 himself H5315 CFS-3MS :
15 Neither H3808 NADV shall he stand H5975 VQY3MS that handleth H8610 the bow H7198 D-NFS ; and he that is swift H7031 of foot H7272 B-CFD-3MS shall not H3808 NADV deliver H4422 himself : neither H3808 NADV shall he that rideth H7392 the horse H5483 deliver H4422 himself H5315 CFS-3MS .
16 And he that is courageous H533 W-JMS among the mighty H1368 shall flee away H5127 naked H6174 AMS in that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 B-AMS , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
