Amos 9:1-9

I saw
<07200> (8804)
the Lord
<0136>
standing
<05324> (8737)
upon the altar
<04196>_:
and he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Smite
<05221> (8685)
the lintel of the door
<03730>_,
that the posts
<05592>
may shake
<07493> (8799)_:
and cut
<01214> (8798)
them in the head
<07218>_,
all of them; and I will slay
<02026> (8799)
the last
<0319>
of them with the sword
<02719>_:
he that fleeth
<05127> (8801)
of them shall not flee away
<05127> (8799)_,
and he that escapeth
<06412>
of them shall not be delivered
<04422> (8735)_.
{lintel: or, chapiter, or, knop} {cut...: or, wound them}
Though they dig
<02864> (8799)
into hell
<07585>_,
thence shall mine hand
<03027>
take
<03947> (8799)
them; though they climb up
<05927> (8799)
to heaven
<08064>_,
thence will I bring them down
<03381> (8686)_:
And though they hide
<02244> (8735)
themselves in the top
<07218>
of Carmel
<03760>_,
I will search
<02664> (8762)
and take them out
<03947> (8804)
thence; and though they be hid
<05641> (8735)
from my sight
<05869>
in the bottom
<07172>
of the sea
<03220>_,
thence will I command
<06680> (8762)
the serpent
<05175>_,
and he shall bite
<05391> (8804)
them:
And though they go
<03212> (8799)
into captivity
<07628>
before
<06440>
their enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
thence will I command
<06680> (8762)
the sword
<02719>_,
and it shall slay
<02026> (8804)
them: and I will set
<07760> (8804)
mine eyes
<05869>
upon them for evil
<07451>_,
and not for good
<02896>_.
And the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>
of hosts
<06635>
[is] he that toucheth
<05060> (8802)
the land
<0776>_,
and it shall melt
<04127> (8799)_,
and all that dwell
<03427> (8802)
therein shall mourn
<056> (8804)_:
and it shall rise up
<05927> (8804)
wholly like a flood
<02975>_;
and shall be drowned
<08257> (8804)_,
as [by] the flood
<02975>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
[It is] he that buildeth
<01129> (8802)
his stories
<04609>
in the heaven
<08064>_,
and hath founded
<03245> (8804)
his troop
<092>
in the earth
<0776>_;
he that calleth
<07121> (8802)
for the waters
<04325>
of the sea
<03220>_,
and poureth them out
<08210> (8799)
upon the face
<06440>
of the earth
<0776>_:
The LORD
<03068>
[is] his name
<08034>_.
{stories: or, spheres: Heb. ascensions} {troop: or, bundle}
[Are] ye not as children
<01121>
of the Ethiopians
<03569>
unto me, O children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_?
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Have not I brought up
<05927> (8689)
Israel
<03478>
out of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_?
and the Philistines
<06430>
from Caphtor
<03731>_,
and the Syrians
<0758>
from Kir
<07024>_?
Behold, the eyes
<05869>
of the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>
[are] upon the sinful
<02403>
kingdom
<04467>_,
and I will destroy
<08045> (8689)
it from off the face
<06440>
of the earth
<0127>_;
saving
<0657>
that I will not utterly
<08045> (8687)
destroy
<08045> (8686)
the house
<01004>
of Jacob
<03290>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
For, lo, I will command
<06680> (8764)_,
and I will sift
<05128> (8689)
the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>
among all nations
<01471>_,
like as [corn] is sifted
<05128> (8735)
in a sieve
<03531>_,
yet shall not the least grain
<06872>
fall
<05307> (8799)
upon the earth
<0776>_.
{sift: Heb. cause to move} {grain: Heb. stone}
