6 Thus says YHWH: “Over three transgressions of Gaza, even over four, I will not turn back—over their taking captive a whole captivity, delivering them up to Edom. 7 And I will send a fire upon the wall of Gaza, and it will devour her citadels. 8 And I will cut off the ruler from Ashdod, and the one holding the scepter from Ashkelon. And I will turn My hand upon Ekron, and the remnant of the Philistines will perish,” says the Lord YHWH. 9 Thus says YHWH: “Over three transgressions of Tyre, even over four, I will not turn back—over their delivering up the whole captivity to Edom, and they did not remember the covenant of brotherhood! 10 And I will send a fire upon the wall of Tyre, and it will devour her citadels.” 11 Thus says YHWH: “Over three transgressions of Edom, even over four, I will not turn back—over his pursuing with the sword his brother, and he destroyed his compassion and tore perpetually with his anger, and his wrath he guarded forever! 12 And I will send a fire on Teman, and it will devour the citadels of Bozrah!” 13 Thus says YHWH: “Over three transgressions of the sons of Ammon, even over four, I will not turn back—over their ripping open the pregnant women of Gilead, so that they might enlarge their border! 14 And I will kindle a fire upon the wall of Rabbah, and it will devour her citadels, with a shout in the day of battle, with a tempest in the day of the whirlwind! 15 And their king will go into exile—he and his princes together,” says YHWH.
