Amos 2:1-7 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

1. Thus saith Hashem: For shloshah peysha'im of Moav, even for arba'ah, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he burned the bones of Melech Edom into lime;

2. But I will send an eish upon Moav, and it shall devour the fortresses of Keriyot; and Moav shall die with tumult, with war cries, and with the blast of the shofar;

3. And I will cut off the shofet (judge) from the midst thereof, and will slay all the sarim (princes) thereof with him, saith Hashem.

4. Thus saith Hashem: For shloshah peysha'im of Yehudah, even for arba'ah, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have despised the torat Hashem, and have not been shomer over His chukkim, and their lies caused them to err, after the halakhah of their avot;

5. But I will send an eish upon Yehudah, and it shall devour the fortresses of Yerushalayim.

6. Thus saith Hashem: For shloshah peysha'im of Yisroel, even for arba'ah, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they sold the tzaddik for kesef, and the needy for a pair of sandals;

7. They who pant after the dust of the ground on the rosh of the poor, and turn aside the derech of the anavim; and an ish and his av will go in unto the same na'arah, to commit chillul Hashem against My Shem kodesh;
