Amos 2:1-8

2:1

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_;

For three
<07969>

transgressions
<06588>

of Moab
<04124>_,

and for four
<0702>_,

I will not turn away
<07725> (8686)

[the punishment] thereof; because he burned
<08313> (8800)

the bones
<06106>

of the king
<04428>

of Edom
<0123>

into lime
<07875>_:

2:2

But I will send
<07971> (8765)

a fire
<0784>

upon Moab
<04124>_,

and it shall devour
<0398> (8804)

the palaces
<0759>

of Kerioth
<07152>_:

and Moab
<04124>

shall die
<04191> (8804)

with tumult
<07588>_,

with shouting
<08643>_,

[and] with the sound
<06963>

of the trumpet
<07782>_:

2:3

And I will cut off
<03772> (8689)

the judge
<08199> (8802)

from the midst
<07130>

thereof, and will slay
<02026> (8799)

all the princes
<08269>

thereof with him, saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_.

2:4

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_;

For three
<07969>

transgressions
<06588>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and for four
<0702>_,

I will not turn away
<07725> (8686)

[the punishment] thereof; because they have despised
<03988> (8800)

the law
<08451>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and have not kept
<08104> (8804)

his commandments
<02706>_,

and their lies
<03577>

caused them to err
<08582> (8686)_,

after
<0310>

the which their fathers
<01>

have walked
<01980> (8804)_:

2:5

But I will send
<07971> (8765)

a fire
<0784>

upon Judah
<03063>_,

and it shall devour
<0398> (8804)

the palaces
<0759>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_.

2:6

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_;

For three
<07969>

transgressions
<06588>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and for four
<0702>_,

I will not turn away
<07725> (8686)

[the punishment] thereof; because they sold
<04376> (8800)

the righteous
<06662>

for silver
<03701>_,

and the poor
<034>

for a pair of shoes
<05275>_;

2:7

That pant
<07602> (8802)

after the dust
<06083>

of the earth
<0776>

on the head
<07218>

of the poor
<01800>_,

and turn aside
<05186> (8686)

the way
<01870>

of the meek
<06035>_:

and a man
<0376>

and his father
<01>

will go
<03212> (8799)

in unto the [same] maid
<05291>_,

to profane
<02490> (8763)

my holy
<06944>

name
<08034>_:

{maid: or, young woman}

2:8

And they lay [themselves] down
<05186> (8686)

upon clothes
<0899>

laid to pledge
<02254> (8803)

by
<0681>

every altar
<04196>_,

and they drink
<08354> (8799)

the wine
<03196>

of the condemned
<06064> (8803)

[in] the house
<01004>

of their god
<0430>_.

{the condemned: or, such as have fined, or, mulcted}
