Amos

Speaks against injustice and predicts Israel's punishment but ends with hope for restoration.

Chapter 1

KJV - Amos 1:6

Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Gaza, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they carried away captive the whole captivity, to deliver them up to Edom:

So says the Lord: Because of the three wrongs committed by Gaza, and even more, four, I won't stop the punishment. They took everyone captive to give them to Edom.
