Amos

Amos 1:9–10

⁹This is what the LORD says:

“For three transgressions of Tyre, even four,

I will not revoke My judgment,

because they delivered up a whole congregation of exiles to Edom

and broke a covenant of brotherhood.

¹⁰So I will send fire upon the walls of Tyre

to consume its citadels.”
