Amos 1
1
Verba Amos, qui fuit in pastoribus de Thecue, quæ vidit super Israël in diebus Oziæ, regis Juda, et in diebus Jeroboam, filii Joas, regis Israël, ante duos annos terræmotus.
2
Et dixit : Dominus de Sion rugiet, et de Jerusalem dabit vocem suam ; et luxerunt speciosa pastorum, et exsiccatus est vertex Carmeli.
3
Hæc dicit Dominus : Super tribus sceleribus Damasci, et super quatuor non convertam eum, eo quod trituraverint in plaustris ferreis Galaad.
4
Et mittam ignem in domum Azaël, et devorabit domos Benadad.
5
Et conteram vectem Damasci : et disperdam habitatorem de campo idoli, et tenentem sceptrum de domo voluptatis : et transferetur populus Syriæ Cyrenen, dicit Dominus.
6
Hæc dicit Dominus : Super tribus sceleribus Gazæ, et super quatuor non convertam eum, eo quod transtulerint captivitatem perfectam, ut concluderent eam in Idumæa.

11
Hæc dicit Dominus : Super tribus sceleribus Edom, et super quatuor non convertam eum, eo quod persecutus sit in gladio fratrem suum, et violaverit misericordiam ejus, et tenuerit ultra furorem suum, et indignationem suam servaverit usque in finem.
12
Mittam ignem in Theman, et devorabit ædes Bosræ.
13
Hæc dicit Dominus : Super tribus sceleribus filiorum Ammon, et super quatuor non convertam eum, eo quod dissecuerit prægnantes Galaad ad dilatandum terminum suum.

Et succendam ignem in muro Rabba, et devorabit ædes ejus in ululatu in die belli, et in turbine in die commotionis.
15
Et ibit Melchom in captivitatem, ipse et principes ejus simul, dicit Dominus.
