Amos 2:1-3

1 Thus says the LORD: 1"For three transgressions of 2Moab, and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,[a] because 3he burned to lime the bones of the king of Edom.
2 So I will send a fire upon Moab, and it shall devour the strongholds of 4Kerioth, and Moab shall die amid uproar, amid shouting and the sound of the trumpet;
3 5I will cut off the ruler from its midst, and will kill 6all its princes[b] with him," says the LORD.
