שִׁמְעוּ־זֹ֕את הַשֹּׁאֲפִ֖ים אֶבְי֑וֹן וְלַשְׁבִּ֖ית ענוי־[עֲנִיֵּי־] אָֽרֶץ׃
Hear this, O ye that would swallow the needy, And destroy the poor of the land,
Rashi on Amos
you who swallow up Heb. הַשֹׁאֲפִים, who swallow up the needy.
Rashi on Amos
and to cut off Heb. וְלַשְׁבִּית, like וּלְהַשְׁבִּית. And examples [of this are found in Isaiah 23:11:] “To destroy (לַשְׁמִד) its strongholds.” (II Kings 9:15) “To go and tell (לַגִיד) in Jezreel.”
