2. God will punish the princes, the king's children, the merchant people, and all such as are clothed with strange apparel, leap on the threshold, or bear silver. 1:8-11
3. God doesn't have good night-vision, so he needs candles when he comes to rob people of their houses, goods, and wine. 1:12-13
4. God will "bring distress upon men" so that they "walk like blind men." He will pour out their blood like dust and "their flesh as dung." 1:17-18
5. God will kill all the inhabitants of the sea coast. 2:5
6. God will destroy Moab and Ammon just like he did to Sodom and Gomorrah. 2:9
