OET (OET-LV) thus YHWH he_says on three (the)_transgressions_of Dammeseq and_for four not revoke_him because threshed_they in/on/at/with_threshing_sledges_of the_iron DOM the_Gilˊād.
OET (OET-RV) This is what Yahweh says:
⇔ “Even if Damascus was three or four sins below the threshold,
⇔ I wouldn’t turn away their punishment,
⇔ for the cruel things they did to the people of Gilead.

This is a poetic device. It does not mean that a specific number of sins had been committed, but it indicates that many sins had led to God’s judgment.

31:3–2:16 The eight judgments of this prophecy proceed from the most obvious enemy, Damascus, to the least obvious, Israel itself. The sequence would have engaged Israel’s attention as they heard God’s judgment against their enemies, but Amos eventually confronted the people with God’s judgment on them.
1:3-5 Damascus, the capital of Aram, was brutal in its treatment of the people of Gilead, Israel’s territory east of the Jordan. By the time Ahab died (853 BC), Damascus had captured Ramoth in Gilead (1 Kgs 22:3). Around 801 BC, Assyria captured Damascus, and the city never again held the power it had wielded in its prime.
OET (OET-LV) thus YHWH he_says on three (the)_transgressions_of Dammeseq and_for four not revoke_him because threshed_they in/on/at/with_threshing_sledges_of the_iron DOM the_Gilˊād.
OET (OET-RV) This is what Yahweh says:
⇔ “Even if Damascus was three or four sins below the threshold,
⇔ I wouldn’t turn away their punishment,
⇔ for the cruel things they did to the people of Gilead.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
