AMOS 2:2  And I will seed a fire into Moab, and it shall devour the houses of Carioth: and Moab shall die with a noise, with the sound of the trumpet:

AMOS 2:3  And I will cut off the judge from the midst thereof, and will slay all his princes with him, saith the Lord.

AMOS 2:4  Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Juda, and for four I will not convert him: because he hath cast away the law of the Lord, and hath not kept his commandments: for their idols have caused them to err, after which their fathers have walked.

AMOS 2:5  And I will send a fire into Juda, and it shall devour the houses of Jerusalem.

AMOS 2:6  Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Israel, and for four I will not convert him: because he hath sold the just man for silver, and the poor man for a pair of shoes.

AMOS 2:7  They bruise the heads of the poor upon the dust of the earth, and turn aside the way of the humble: and the son and his father have gone to the same young woman, to profane my holy name.

AMOS 2:8  And they sat down upon garments laid to pledge by every altar: and drank the wine of the condemned in the house of their God.

AMOS 2:9  Yet I cast out the Amorrhite before their face: whose height was like the height of cedars, and who was strong as an oak: and I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots beneath.

AMOS 2:10  It is I that brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and I led you forty years through the wilderness, that you might possess the land of the Amorrhite.

AMOS 2:11  And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. Is it not so, O ye children of Israel, saith the Lord?

AMOS 2:12  And you will present wine to the Nazarites: and command the prophets, saying: Prophesy not.

AMOS 2:13  Behold, I will screak under you as a wain screaketh that is laden with hay.

AMOS 2:14  And flight shall perish from the swift, and the valiant shall not possess his strength, neither shall the strong save his life.

AMOS 2:15  And he that holdeth the bow shall not stand, and the swift of foot shall not escape, neither shall the rider of the horse save his life.

AMOS 2:16  And the stout of heart among the valiant shall flee away naked in that day, saith the Lord.
