At aking iwawasak ang halang ng Damasco, at aking ihihiwalay ang mananahan mula sa libis ng Aven, at siyang humahawak ng cetro mula sa bahay ng Eden; at ang bayan ng Siria ay papasok sa pagkabihag hanggang sa Chir, sabi ng Panginoon.

201. Internal Meaning of Amos, Chapter 1 (1)
1-2 [The teaching of] the Lord about the Word and doctrine from the Word: (1, 6)
3-5 About those who pervert knowledges [cognitiones] from the Word which are of service to doctrine and who thus turn away also the good of those knowledges: these will perish. (3, 15)
6-8 About those who apply the Word to a heretical falsity: these will perish. (3)
9-10 About those who pervert knowledges [cognitiones] of good and truth, and thereby do injury to the external sense of the Word. (3)
11-12 About those who pervert the sense of the letter of the Word by falsity, by which doctrine perishes. (3)
13-15 About those who falsify the truths of the sense of the letter of the Word: they do not resist in the day of combat, but destroy the truth of doctrine. (3, 15)
