Amos 1:3-5

3This is what the LORD says:

“For three transgressions of Damascus, even four,I will not revoke My judgment,1because they threshed Gileadwith sledges of iron.4So I will send fire upon the house of Hazaelto consume the citadels of Ben-hadad.5I will break down the gates of Damascus;I will cut off the ruler2 from the Valley of Aven3and the one who wields the scepter in Beth-eden.The people of Aram will be exiled to Kir,”says the LORD.
