Amos 5:17

5:17 In all the vineyards there will be wailing,

for I will pass through 1  your midst,” says the Lord.

Amos 5:27

5:27 and I will drive you into exile beyond Damascus,” says the Lord.

He is called the God who commands armies!

1 sn The expression pass through your midst alludes to Exod 12:12, where the Lord announced he would “pass through” Egypt and bring death to the Egyptian firstborn.
