Amos 2
2
1Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate); For three transgressions of Mo’av [Seed of my Father], and for four, I will not turn away [the punishment] thereof; because he burned the bones of the king of Edom [Red] into lime:
2But I will send a fire upon Mo’av [Seed of my Father], and it shall devour the palaces of K’riot [Surrounded by a Wall]: and Mo’av [Seed of my Father] shall die with tumult, with shouting, [and] with the sound of the trumpet:
3And I will cut off the judge from the midst thereof, and will slay all the princes thereof with him, says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
4Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate); For three transgressions of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised], and for four, I will not turn away [the punishment] thereof; because they have despised the law of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and have not kept his commandments, and their lies caused them to err, after the which their fathers have walked:
5But I will send a fire upon Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised], and it shall devour the palaces of Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace].
6Thus says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate); For three transgressions of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], and for four, I will not turn away [the punishment] thereof; because they sold the righteous for silver, and the poor for a pair of shoes;
7That pant after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and turn aside the way of the meek: and a man and his father will go in unto the [same] maid, to Profane (treat as common; defile) my holy name:
8And they lay [themselves] down upon clothes laid to pledge by every altar, and they drink the wine of the condemned [in] the house of their god.
9Yet destroyed I the Emori [Rebellious Highlanders] before them, 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.
10Also I brought you up from the land of Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place], and led you forty years through the wilderness, to possess the land of the Emori [Rebellious Highlanders].
11And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for N’zirim [consecrated ones]. [Is it] not even thus, O you2f people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]? says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
12But you2f gave the N’zirim [consecrated ones] wine to drink; and commanded the prophets, saying, Prophesy not.
13Behold, I am pressed under you, as a cart is pressed [that is] full of sheaves.
14Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mighty deliver himself:
15Neither shall he stand that handles the bow; and [he that is] swift of foot shall not deliver [himself]: neither shall he that rides the horse deliver himself.
16And [he that is] courageous among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day, says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
