Amos 1:11-12

11 Thus says the Lord: For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, I will not revoke the punishment; [a] because he pursued his brother with the sword and cast off all pity; he maintained his anger perpetually, [b] and kept his wrath [c] forever.
12 So I will send a fire on Teman, and it shall devour the strongholds of Bozrah.
