Amos 1:3-5

International Standard Version

“For three transgressions of Damascus
    —and now for a fourth—
        I will not turn away;
because they have trampled down^[a] Gilead
    with ironclad threshing sleds.
⁴ So I will send down fire upon the house of Hazael,
    and it will devour the palaces of Ben-hadad.
⁵ I will shatter the gate bars of Damascus,
    and I will cut off the residents of the Aven Valley,
along with the one who holds the scepter from Beth-eden;
    and the people of Aram will be exiled to Kir,”
        says the Lord.
