# Amos 9 (New King James Version)
|
|
The Destruction of Israel
|
|
|
|
##### Chapter 9
|
|
###### 1 I saw the Lord standing by the altar, and He said:
|
|
"Strike the doorposts, that the thresholds may shake,
|
|
And break them on the heads of them all.
|
|
I will slay the last of them with the sword.
|
|
He who flees from them shall not get away,
|
|
And he who escapes from them shall not be delivered.
|
|
|
|
###### 2 "Though they dig into hell,
|
|
From there My hand shall take them;
|
|
Though they climb up to heaven,
|
|
From there I will bring them down;
|
|
|
|
###### 3 And though they hide themselves on top of Carmel,
|
|
From there I will search and take them;
|
|
Though they hide from My sight at the bottom of the sea,
|
|
From there I will command the serpent, and it shall bite them;
|
|
|
|
###### 4 Though they go into captivity before their enemies,
|
|
From there I will command the sword,
|
|
And it shall slay them.
|
|
I will set My eyes on them for harm and not for good."
|
|
|
|
###### 5 The Lord God of hosts,
|
|
He who touches the earth and it melts,
|
|
And all who dwell there mourn;
|
|
All of it shall swell like the River,
|
|
And subside like the River of Egypt.
|
|
|
|
###### 6 He who builds His layers in the sky,
|
|
And has founded His strata in the earth;
|
|
Who calls for the waters of the sea,
|
|
And pours them out on the face of the earth--
|
|
The Lord _is_ His name.
|
|
|
|
###### 7 "_Are_ you not like the people of Ethiopia to Me,
|
|
O children of Israel?" says the Lord.
|
|
"Did I not bring up Israel from the land of Egypt,
|
|
The Philistines from Caphtor,
|
|
And the Syrians from Kir?
|
|
|
|
###### 8 "Behold, the eyes of the Lord God _are_ on the sinful kingdom,
|
|
And I will destroy it from the face of the earth;
|
|
Yet I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,"
|
|
Says the Lord.
|
|
|
|
###### 9 "For surely I will command,
|
|
And will sift the house of Israel among all nations,
|
|
As _grain_ is sifted in a sieve;
|
|
Yet not the smallest grain shall fall to the ground.
|
|
|
|
###### 10 All the sinners of My people shall die by the sword,
|
|
Who say, 'The calamity shall not overtake nor confront us.'Israel Will Be Restored
|
|
|
|
###### 11 "On that day I will raise up
|
|
The tabernacle of David, which has fallen down,
|
|
And repair its damages;
|
|
I will raise up its ruins,
|
|
And rebuild it as in the days of old;
|
|
|
|
###### 12 That they may possess the remnant of Edom,
|
|
And all the Gentiles who are called by My name,"
|
|
Says the Lord who does this thing.
|
|
|
|
###### 13 "Behold, the days are coming," says the Lord,
|
|
"When the plowman shall overtake the reaper,
|
|
And the treader of grapes him who sows seed;
|
|
The mountains shall drip with sweet wine,
|
|
And all the hills shall flow _with it._
|
|
|
|
###### 14 I will bring back the captives of My people Israel;
|
|
They shall build the waste cities and inhabit _them;_
|
|
They shall plant vineyards and drink wine from them;
|
|
They shall also make gardens and eat fruit from them.
|
|
|
|
###### 15 I will plant them in their land,
|
|
And no longer shall they be pulled up
|
|
From the land I have given them,"
|
|
Says the Lord your God.
