AMOS
Chapter 9
Amos | RNKJV | 9:1 | I saw יהוה standing upon the altar: and he said, Smite the lintel of the door, that the posts may shake: and cut them in the head, all of them; and I will slay the last of them with the sword: he that fleeth of them shall not flee away, and he that escapeth of them shall not be delivered. | |
Amos | RNKJV | 9:2 | Though they dig into hell, thence shall mine hand take them; though they climb up to heaven, thence will I bring them down: | |
Amos | RNKJV | 9:3 | And though they hide themselves in 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, thence will I command the serpent, and he shall bite them: | |
Amos | RNKJV | 9:4 | And though they go into captivity before their enemies, thence 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 | RNKJV | 9:5 | And the Sovereign יהוה of hosts is he that toucheth the land, and it shall melt, and all that dwell therein shall mourn: and it shall rise up wholly like a flood; and shall be drowned, as by the flood of Egypt. | |
Amos | RNKJV | 9:6 | It is he that buildeth his stories in the heaven, and hath founded his troop in the earth; he that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: יהוה is his name. | |
Amos | RNKJV | 9:7 | Are ye not as children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel? saith יהוה. Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt? and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir? | |
Amos | RNKJV | 9:8 | Behold, the eyes of the Sovereign יהוה are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; saving that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith יהוה. | |
Amos | RNKJV | 9:9 | For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth. | |
Amos | RNKJV | 9:10 | All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, which say, The evil shall not overtake nor prevent us. | |
Amos | RNKJV | 9:11 | In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old: | |
Amos | RNKJV | 9:12 | That they may possess the remnant of Edom, and of all the heathen, which are called by my name, saith יהוה that doeth this. | |
Amos | RNKJV | 9:13 | Behold, the days come, saith יהוה, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed; and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt. | |
Amos | RNKJV | 9:14 | And I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them. | |
