Judgment on Judah - Amos 2

Amos 2

⁴ Thus says the Lord:
For three transgressions of Judah,
and for four, I will not revoke the punishment; ₁
because they have rejected the law of the Lord,
and have not kept his statutes,
but they have been led astray by the same lies
after which their ancestors walked.
⁵ So I will send a fire on Judah,
and it shall devour the strongholds of Jerusalem.
