Sikkuth

In Bible versions:

Sakkuth: AVS NIV NRSV TEV
Sikkuth: NET NASB
a pagan god and idol revered as king

NET Glossary: the Mesopotamian star god Sakkuth, identified with Ninurta in an Ugaritic god list; in Amos 5:26 the Hebrew term sikkut apparently refers to Sakkuth; the LXX, however, reflects a Hebrew text which read sukkat, meaning "tent," "tabernacle," or "shrine," and is followed by several English versions
