Amo Amos, chapter Book of Amos, chapter 9
I have seen the Lord standing by the altar, and He says, || “Strike the knob, and the thresholds shake, || And cut them off by the head—all of them, || And I slay their posterity with a sword, || None that flee of them flee away, || Nor a fugitive of them escape. If they dig through into Sheol, || From there My hand takes them, || And if they go up [to] the heavens, || From there I cause them to come down. Psa 139:8; Jer 23:24; Oba 1:4And if they are hid in the top of Carmel, || From there I search out, and have taken them, || And if they are hid from My eyes in the bottom of the sea, || From there I command the serpent, || And it has bitten them. 1Ki 18:19; 2Ki 19:23; Jer 46:18And if they go into captivity before their enemies, || From there I command the sword, || And it has slain them, || And I have set My eye on them for evil, || And not for good.” Jer 44:11And [it is] the Lord, YHWH of Hosts, || Who is striking against the land, and it melts, || And mourned have all the inhabitants in it, || And all of it has come up as a flood, || And it has sunk—like the flood of Egypt. Psa 97:5; Nam 1:5Who is building His upper chambers in the heavens; As for His troop, || On earth He has founded it, || Who is calling for the waters of the sea, || And pours them out on the face of the land, || YHWH [is] His Name. Amo 5:8“Are yöu not as sons of Cushim to Me, O sons of Israel?” A declaration of YHWH. “Did I not bring Israel up out of the land of Egypt? And the Philistines from Caphtor, and Aram from Kir? Jer 13:23; Jer 47:4Behold, [the] eyes of Lord YHWH [are] on the sinful kingdom, || And I have destroyed it from off the face of the ground, || Only, I do not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,” || A declaration of YHWH. Pro 15:3; Psa 66:7; Jer 5:18; Jer 5:29“For behold, I am commanding, || And I have shaken among all the nations the house of Israel, || As [one] shakes with a sieve, || And there does not fall a grain [to] the earth. Act 15:16By sword all sinners of My people die, || Who are saying, || Evil does not overtake, or go before, || For our sakes. In that day I raise the dwelling place of David that is fallen, || And I have repaired their breaches, || And I raise up its ruins, || And I have built it up as in days of old, Mic 4:7; Act 15:16So that they possess the remnant of Edom, || And all the nations on whom My Name is called,” || A declaration of YHWH—the doer of this. Num 24:18; Act 15:17“Behold, days are coming,” || A declaration of YHWH, || “And the plowman has come near to the reaper, || And the treader of grapes to the scatterer of seed, || And the mountains have dropped juice, || And all the hills melt. Jol 3:18And I have turned back [to] the captivity of My people Israel, || And they have built desolate cities, and inhabited, || And have planted vineyards, and drunk their wine, || And made gardens, and eaten their fruit. Isa 62:4; Isa 62:9; Ezk 28:26And I have planted them on their own ground, || And they are not plucked up anymore from off their own ground, || That I have given to them,” said your God YHWH!Jer 32:41
