| The Darby Online Bible (DBY) | ||||||||||||||||
| Amos 9:1 | I saw the Lord standing upon the altar; and he said, Smite the chapiter that the thresholds may shake; and break all of them in pieces, in the head; and I will slay the last of them with the sword: he that fleeth of them shall not get away by flight, and he that escapeth of them shall not be delivered. | |||||||||||||||
| Amos 9:2 | Though they dig into Sheol, thence shall my hand take them; and though they climb up to the heavens, thence will I bring them down; | |||||||||||||||
| Amos 9:3 | and though they hide themselves on the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out thence; and though they be hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, there will I command the serpent, and it shall bite them; | |||||||||||||||
| Amos 9:4 | and though they go into captivity before their enemies, there will I command the sword, and it shall slay them: and I will set mine eyes upon them for evil, and not for good. | |||||||||||||||
| Amos 9:5 | And the Lord Jehovah of hosts is he that toucheth the land, and it melteth, and all that dwell therein shall mourn; and it shall wholly rise up like the Nile, and sink down as the river of Egypt. | |||||||||||||||
| Amos 9:6 | It is he that buildeth his upper chambers in the heavens, and hath founded his vault upon the earth; he that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: Jehovah is his name. | |||||||||||||||
| Amos 9:7 | Are ye not as children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel? saith Jehovah. Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt? and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir? | |||||||||||||||
| Amos 9:8 | Behold, the eyes of the Lord Jehovah are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth: only that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith Jehovah. | |||||||||||||||
| Amos 9:9 | For behold, I command, and I will shake the house of Israel to and fro among all the nations, like as one shaketh [corn] in a sieve; yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth. | |||||||||||||||
| Amos 9:10 | All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, who say, Evil shall not overtake nor befall us. | |||||||||||||||
| Amos 9:11 | In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David which is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up its ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old: | |||||||||||||||
| Amos 9:12 | that they may possess the remnant of Edom, and all the nations upon whom my name is called, saith Jehovah who doeth this. | |||||||||||||||
| Amos 9:13 | Behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, when the ploughman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed; and the mountains shall drop new wine, and all the hills shall melt. | |||||||||||||||
| Amos 9:14 | And I will turn again the captivity of my people Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; and they shall make gardens, and eat the fruit of them. | |||||||||||||||
| Amos 9:15 | And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be plucked up out of their land which I have given them, saith Jehovah thy God. | |||||||||||||||
