Amos

Chapter 9

1 I saw7200 853 the Lord136 standing5324 upon5921 the altar:4196 and he said,559 Smite5221 the lintel3730 of the door, that the posts5592 may shake:7493 and cut1214 them in the head,7218 all3605 of them; and I will slay2026 the last319 of them with the sword:2719 he that fleeth5127 of them shall not3808 flee away,5127 and he that escapeth6412 of them shall not3808 be delivered.4422

2 Though518 they dig2864 into hell,7585 thence4480 8033 shall mine hand3027 take3947 them; though518 they climb up5927 to heaven,8064 thence4480 8033 will I bring them down: 3381

3 And though518 they hide themselves2244 in the top7218 of Carmel,3760 I will search2664 and take3947 them out thence;4480 8033 and though518 they be hid5641 from4480 5048 my sight5869 in the bottom7172 of the sea,3220 thence4480 8033 will I command6680 853 the serpent,5175 and he shall bite5391 them:

4 And though518 they go1980 into captivity7628 before6440 their enemies,341 thence4480 8033 will I command6680 853 the sword,2719 and it shall slay2026 them: and I will set7760 mine eyes5869 upon5921 them for evil,7451 and not3808 for good.2896

5 And the Lord136 GOD3069 of hosts6635 is he that toucheth5060 the land,776 and it shall melt,4127 and all3605 that dwell3427 therein shall mourn:56 and it shall rise up5927 wholly3605 like a flood;2975 and shall be drowned,8257 as by the flood2975 of Egypt.4714

6 It is he that buildeth1129 his stories4609 in the heaven,8064 and hath founded3245 his troop92 in5921 the earth;776 he that calleth7121 for the waters4325 of the sea,3220 and poureth them out8210 upon5921 the face6440 of the earth:776 The LORD3068 is his name.8034

7 Are ye859 not3808 as children1121 of the Ethiopians3569 unto me, O children1121 of Israel?3478 saith5002 the LORD.3068 Have not3808 I brought up5927 853 Israel3478 out of the land4480 776 of Egypt?4714 and the Philistines6430 from Caphtor,4480 3731 and the Syrians758 from Kir?4480 7024

8 Behold,2009 the eyes5869 of the Lord136 GOD3069 are upon the sinful2400 kingdom,4467 and I will destroy8045 it from off4480 5921 the face6440 of the earth;127 saving657 that3588 I will not3808 utterly destroy8045 8045 853 the house1004 of Jacob,3290 saith5002 the LORD.3068

9 For,3588 lo,2009 I595 will command,6680 and I will sift5128 853 the house1004 of Israel3478 among all3605 nations,1471 like as834 corn is sifted5128 in a sieve,3531 yet shall not3808 the least grain6872 fall5307 upon the earth.776

10 All3605 the sinners2400 of my people5971 shall die4191 by the sword,2719 which say,559 The evil7451 shall not3808 overtake5066 nor prevent6923 1157 us.

11 In that1931 day3117 will I raise up6965 853 the tabernacle5521 of David1732 that is fallen,5307 and close up1443 853 the breaches6556 thereof; and I will raise up6965 his ruins,2034 and I will build1129 it as in the days3117 of old: 5769

12 That4616 they may possess3423 853 the remnant7611 of Edom,123 and of all3605 the heathen,1471 which834 are called by7121 5921 my name,8034 saith5002 the LORD3068 that doeth6213 this.2063

13 Behold,2009 the days3117 come,935 saith5002 the LORD,3068 that the plowman2790 shall overtake5066 the reaper,7114 and the treader1869 of grapes6025 him that soweth4900 seed;2233 and the mountains2022 shall drop5197 sweet wine,6071 and all3605 the hills1389 shall melt.4127

14 And I will bring again7725 853 the captivity7622 of my people5971 of Israel,3478 and they shall build1129 the waste8074 cities,5892 and inhabit3427 them; and they shall plant5193 vineyards,3754 and drink8354 853 the wine3196 thereof; they shall also make6213 gardens,1593 and eat398 853 the fruit6529 of them.

15 And I will plant5193 them upon5921 their land,127 and they shall no3808 more5750 be pulled up5428 out of4480 5921 their land127 which834 I have given5414 them, saith559 the LORD3068 thy God.430

Amos

Chapter 9

1 I SAW the LORD standing over the altar; and he said, Smite the lintel of the door, that the thresholds may shake; and let their treachery be upon the heads of all of them, and I will slay those who are left of them with the sword; he that flees of them shall not escape, and he that is spared of them shall not be delivered.

2 Though they go down into Sheol, thence shall my hand bring them up; though they climb to heaven, thence will I bring them down;

3 And though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out from there; and though they be hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent and it shall bite them;

4 And though they go into captivity before their enemies, there I will command the sword, and it shall slay them; and I will set my eyes upon them for evil and not for good;

5 Says the LORD God of hosts, who touches the earth and it quakes, and all who dwell in it mourn; and the end shall rise up like a river, and shall recede like the river of Egypt:

6 It is he who has built his stories in heaven, and has made his possessions in the earth; who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out upon the face of the earth; the LORD of hosts is his name.

7 Behold, you are like the Ethiopians to me, O children of Israel! says the LORD. Behold, I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt and the Philistines from Capadocia and the Arameans from Kir.

8 Behold, the eyes of the LORD God are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; but I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, says the LORD.

9 For behold, I will command, and I will scatter the house of Israel among all nations as they sift wheat in a sieve, but not even the smallest grain of it shall fall upon the ground.

10 All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, who say, The evil shall not touch us nor overtake us.

11 In that day I will raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen and close up its breaches, and I will raise up its ruins and I will build it as in the days of old, and as in the years of many generations.

12 For they shall possess the remnant of Edom, and all the Gentiles who are called by my name, says the LORD who does these things.

13 Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when the threshing floor shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that sows seed; and the mountains shall drop sweetness, and all the hills shall rejoice.

14 And I will bring back the captivity of my people Israel, and they shall build the ruined cities and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards and drink the wine thereof; they shall also plant gardens and eat the fruit of them.

15 And I will plant them upon their own land, and they shall no more be uprooted from the land which I have given them, says the LORD your God.

5 Says the LORD God of hosts, who touches the earth and it quakes, and all who dwell in it mourn; and the end shall rise up like a river, and shall recede like the river of Egypt:

6 It is he who has built his stories in heaven, and has made his possessions in the earth; who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out upon the face of the earth; the LORD of hosts is his name.

7 Are ye859 not3808 as children1121 of the Ethiopians3569 unto me, O children1121 of Israel?3478 saith5002 the LORD.3068 Have not3808 I brought up5927 853 Israel3478 out of the land4480 776 of Egypt?4714 and the Philistines6430 from Caphtor,4480 3731 and the Syrians758 from Kir?4480 7024

7 Behold, you are like the Ethiopians to me, O children of Israel! says the LORD. Behold, I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt and the Philistines from Capadocia and the Arameans from Kir.

8 Behold,2009 the eyes5869 of the Lord136 GOD3069 are upon the sinful2400 kingdom,4467 and I will destroy8045 it from off4480 5921 the face6440 of the earth;127 saving657 that3588 I will not3808 utterly destroy8045 8045 853 the house1004 of Jacob,3290 saith5002 the LORD.3068

8 Behold, the eyes of the LORD God are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; but I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, says the LORD.

9 For,3588 lo,2009 I595 will command,6680 and I will sift5128 853 the house1004 of Israel3478 among all3605 nations,1471 like as834 corn is sifted5128 in a sieve,3531 yet shall not3808 the least grain6872 fall5307 upon the earth.776

9 For behold, I will command, and I will scatter the house of Israel among all nations as they sift wheat in a sieve, but not even the smallest grain of it shall fall upon the ground.

10 All3605 the sinners2400 of my people5971 shall die4191 by the sword,2719 which say,559 The evil7451 shall not3808 overtake5066 nor prevent6923 1157 us.

10 All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, who say, The evil shall not touch us nor overtake us.

11 In that1931 day3117 will I raise up6965 853 the tabernacle5521 of David1732 that is fallen,5307 and close up1443 853 the breaches6556 thereof; and I will raise up6965 his ruins,2034 and I will build1129 it as in the days3117 of old: 5769

11 In that day I will raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen and close up its breaches, and I will raise up its ruins and I will build it as in the days of old, and as in the years of many generations.

12 That4616 they may possess3423 853 the remnant7611 of Edom,123 and of all3605 the heathen,1471 which834 are called by7121 5921 my name,8034 saith5002 the LORD3068 that doeth6213 this.2063

12 For they shall possess the remnant of Edom, and all the Gentiles who are called by my name, says the LORD who does these things.

13 Behold,2009 the days3117 come,935 saith5002 the LORD,3068 that the plowman2790 shall overtake5066 the reaper,7114 and the treader1869 of grapes6025 him that soweth4900 seed;2233 and the mountains2022 shall drop5197 sweet wine,6071 and all3605 the hills1389 shall melt.4127

13 Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when the threshing floor shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that sows seed; and the mountains shall drop sweetness, and all the hills shall rejoice.

14 And I will bring again7725 853 the captivity7622 of my people5971 of Israel,3478 and they shall build1129 the waste8074 cities,5892 and inhabit3427 them; and they shall plant5193 vineyards,3754 and drink8354 853 the wine3196 thereof; they shall also make6213 gardens,1593 and eat398 853 the fruit6529 of them.

14 And I will bring back the captivity of my people Israel, and they shall build the ruined cities and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards and drink the wine thereof; they shall also plant gardens and eat the fruit of them.

15 And I will plant5193 them upon5921 their land,127 and they shall no3808 more5750 be pulled up5428 out of4480 5921 their land127 which834 I have given5414 them, saith559 the LORD3068 thy God.430

15 And I will plant them upon their own land, and they shall no more be uprooted from the land which I have given them, says the LORD your God.
