Amos 1:4      Amos 1:6

Amos 1:5

I will break down the gates of Damascus [break down the gate into the city]
and exterminate (cut down) the inhabitants of Bakat-Aven ["the valley of wickedness," see Hos. 4:15]
and whoever holds the scepter of Beit-Eden [city/region on the Euphrates or literally sarcastically: "the city of pleasure"]
and the people of Aram [Syria] shall go into captivity under Kir [meaning wall, probably the Transcaucasus region, present-day Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia]," says the Lord (Yahweh).
