Amos 2:1-8

Amos 2:1-8 CSB

The LORD says: I will not relent from punishing Moab  for three crimes, even four, because he burned the bones of the king of Edom to lime.  Therefore, I will send fire against Moab, and it will consume the citadels of Kerioth.  Moab will die with a tumult,  with shouting and the sound of the ram’s horn. I will cut off the judge  from the land and kill all its officials  with him. The LORD has spoken. The LORD says: I will not relent from punishing Judah  for three crimes, even four, because they have rejected the instruction of the  LORD   and have not kept his statutes.  The lies  that their ancestors followed  have led them astray. Therefore, I will send fire  against Judah, and it will consume the citadels of Jerusalem. The LORD says: I will not relent from punishing Israel  for three crimes, even four, because they sell a righteous person for silver and a needy person for a pair of sandals.  They trample the heads of the poor  on the dust of the ground and obstruct the path of the needy.  A man and his father have sexual relations with the same girl,  profaning my holy name.  They stretch out beside every altar  on garments taken as collateral,  and in the house of their God they drink wine obtained through fines.
