Amos 1:3-5 - Damascus Will Be Judged For Its Crimes

³ Thus says the Lord,
“For three transgressions of Damascus and for four
I will not revoke its punishment,
Because they threshed Gilead with implements of sharp iron.
⁴ “So I will send fire upon the house of Hazael
And it will consume the citadels of Ben-hadad.
⁵ “I will also break the gate bar of Damascus,
And cut off the inhabitant from the valley of Aven,
And him who holds the scepter, from Beth-eden;
So the people of Aram will go exiled to Kir,”
Says the Lord.
