Amos 1:6-8
Evangelical Heritage Version
Judgment Against Philistia
6 This is what the Lord says:
    Because of three sins of Gaza,
    because of four, I will not hold back judgment,
    because they sold an entire population into exile,
    handing them over to Edom.
7 So I will send fire against the city wall of Gaza,
    and it will consume her citadels.
8 I will cut off the one seated in Ashdod,
    and the one who holds a scepter in Ashkelon.
    I will also turn my hand against Ekron,
    and what is left of the Philistines will perish.
    The Lord God has spoken.
Amos 1:6-8
New International Version
6 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Gaza,(A)
    even for four, I will not relent.(B)
Because she took captive whole communities
    and sold them to Edom,(C)
7 I will send fire on the walls of Gaza
    that will consume her fortresses.
8 I will destroy the king[a] of Ashdod(D)
    and the one who holds the scepter in Ashkelon.
I will turn my hand(E) against Ekron,
    till the last of the Philistines(F) are dead,”(G)
says the Sovereign Lord.(H)
