Amos 3:9-11
International Standard Version
9 Announce this[a] in the fortified citadels of Ashdod,
and in the fortified citadels of the land of Egypt.
Tell them, ‘Gather together on the mountains of Samaria;
look at the great misery among the citadels,[b]
along with the oppression within Egypt.’[c]
10 Because they do not know how to act right,”
declares the Lord,
“they are filling their strongholds with treasures
that they took from others by violence into their fortified citadels.”
11 Therefore this is what the Lord God says:
“An enemy will surround the land.
He[d] will pull down your defenses,
and plunder your fortified citadels.”
