Amos 1:6-9

6ThusH3541 saith Jehovah: For threeH7969 transgressionsH6588 of GazaH5804, yea, for fourH702, I will not turnH7725 awayH7725 the punishment thereof; because they carried awayH7725 captive the whole people, to deliverH5462 them up to EdomH123. 7But I will sendH7971 a fireH784 on the wallH2346 of GazaH5804, and it shall devourH398 the palaces thereof. 8And I will cutH3772 off the inhabitantH3427 from AshdodH795, and him that holdeth the sceptre from AshkelonH831; and I will turnH7725 my handH3027 against EkronH6138; and the remnantH7611 of the PhilistinesH6430 shall perishH6, saith the LordH136 Jehovah.

9ThusH3541 saith Jehovah: For threeH7969 transgressionsH6588 of TyreH6865, yea, for fourH702, I will not turnH7725 awayH7725 the punishment thereof; because they deliveredH5462 up the whole people to EdomH123, and rememberedH2142 not the brotherly covenantH1285.
