Amos 2
1Yahweh says:
I will not turn away its punishment;
because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime;
and it will devour the palaces of Kerioth;
and Moab will die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet;
and will kill all its princes with him,”
4Yahweh says:
I will not turn away its punishment;
because they have rejected Yahweh’s law,
and have not kept his statutes,
and their lies have led them astray,
after which their fathers walked;
and it will devour the palaces of Jerusalem.”
6Yahweh says:
I will not turn away its punishment;
because they have sold the righteous for silver,
and the needy for a pair of sandals;
and deny justice to the oppressed;
and a man and his father use the same maiden, to profane my holy name;
and in the house of their God
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.
and led you forty years in the wilderness,
to possess the land of the Amorite.
and some of your young men for Nazirites.
Isn’t this true,
you children of Israel?” says Yahweh.
and commanded the prophets, saying, ‘Don’t prophesy!’
as a cart crushes that is full of grain.
and the strong won’t strengthen his force;
neither shall the mighty deliver himself;
and he who is swift of foot won’t escape;
neither shall he who rides the horse deliver himself;
