foreign_a nation_n be_v three_o 1._o that_o he_o may_v be_v the_o more_o patient_o hear_v of_o his_o countryman_n the_o israelite_n the_o israelite_n see_v their_o prophet_n amos_n so_o sharp_a against_o the_o syrian_n and_o other_o their_o enemy_n can_v not_o but_o with_o more_o quiet_a hear_v he_o when_o he_o shall_v prophesy_v against_o they_o also_o consolatio_fw-la quaedam_fw-la

to_o wonder_v if_o god_n shall_v at_o any_o time_n come_v against_o they_o in_o vengeance_n see_v that_o he_o will_v not_o spare_v the_o syrian_n and_o other_o their_o neighbour_n country_n though_o they_o be_v destitute_a of_o the_o light_n of_o god_n word_n and_o ignorant_a of_o his_o will_n 3._o that_o they_o may_v the_o more_o tremble_v at_o the_o word_n of_o this_o prophecy_n when_o they_o shall_v see_v the_o syrian_n and_o other_o nation_n afflict_v and_o torment_v according_a to_o the_o heinousnes_n of_o their_o iniquity_n here_o may_v the_o israelite_n
thus_o have_v argue_v will_v not_o god_n spare_v the_o syrian_n the_o philistine_n the_o tyrian_n the_o edomite_n the_o ammonite_n the_o moabite_n then_o out_o of_o doubt_n he_o will_v not_o spare_v us._n they_o silly_a people_n never_o know_v the_o holy_a will_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o shall_v they_o be_v so_o severe_o punish_v how_o then_o shall_v we_o escape_v who_o know_v god_n holy_a will_n have_v contemn_v it_o you_o see_v now_o why_o amos_n send_v with_o a_o message_n to_o the_o ten_o tribe_n of_o israel_n do_v first_o prophecy_n against_o foreign_a nation_n in_o the_o last_o place_n
