ASV_Strong : Amos 9

verses:

1. I saw[H7200] the Lord[H136] standing[H5324] beside the altar[H4196]: and he said[H559], Smite[H5221] the capitals[H3730], that the thresholds[H5592] may shake[H7493]; and break[H1214] them in pieces on the head[H7218] of all of them[H2026]; and I will slay the last[H319] of them with the sword[H2719]: there shall not one of them flee[H5127] away[H5127], and there shall not[H4422] one of them escape[H6412].

2. Though they dig[H2864] into Sheol[H7585], thence shall my hand[H3027] take[H3947] them[H5927]; and though they climb up to heaven[H8064], thence will I bring them down[H3381].

3. And though they hide[H2244] themselves in the top[H7218] of Carmel[H3760], I will search[H2664] and take them out[H3947] thence[H5641]; and though they be hid from my sight[H5869] in the bottom[H7172] of the sea[H3220], thence will I command[H6680] the serpent[H5175], and it shall bite them[H5391].

4. And though they go[H3212] into captivity[H7628] before[H6440] their enemies[H341], thence will I command[H6680] the sword[H2719], and it shall slay[H2026] them[H7760]: and I will set mine eyes[H5869] upon them for evil[H7451], and not for good[H2896].

5. For the Lord[H136], Jehovah[H3069] of hosts[H6635], is he that toucheth[H5060] the land[H776] and it melteth[H4127], and all that dwell[H3427] therein shall mourn[H56]; and it shall rise up[H5927] wholly like the River[H2975], and shall sink[H8257] again[H2975], like the River of Egypt[H4714];

6. it is he that buildeth[H1129] his chambers[H4609] in the heavens[H8064], and hath founded[H3245] his vault[H92] upon the earth[H776]; he that calleth[H7121] for the waters[H4325] of the sea[H3220], and poureth them out[H8210] upon the face[H6440] of the earth[H776]; Jehovah[H3068] is his name[H8034].

7. Are ye not as the children[H1121] of the Ethiopians[H3569] unto me[H1121], O children of Israel[H3478]? saith[H5002] Jehovah[H3068]. Have not I brought up[H5927] Israel[H3478] out of the land[H776] of Egypt[H4714], and the Philistines[H6430] from Caphtor[H3731], and the Syrians[H758] from Kir[H7024]?

8. Behold[H5869], the eyes of the Lord[H136] Jehovah[H136] are upon the sinful[H2403] kingdom[H4467], and I will destroy[H8045] it from off the face[H6440] of the earth[H127]; save[H657] that I will not utterly[H8045] destroy[H8045] the house[H1004] of Jacob[H3290], saith[H5002] Jehovah[H3068].

9. For[H6680], lo, I will command, and I will sift[H5128] the house[H1004] of Israel[H3478] among all the nations[H1471], like as grain is sifted[H5128] in a sieve[H3531], yet shall not the least kernel[H6872] fall[H5307] upon the earth[H776].

10. All the sinners[H2400] of my people[H5971] shall die[H4191] by the sword[H2719], who say[H559], The evil[H7451] shall not overtake[H5066] nor meet us[H6923].

11. In that day[H3117] will I raise up[H6965] the tabernacle[H5521] of David[H1732] that is fallen[H5307], and close up[H1443] the breaches[H6556] thereof[H6965]; and I will raise up its ruins[H2034], and I will build[H1129] it as in the days[H3117] of old[H5769];

12. that they may possess[H3423] the remnant[H7611] of Edom[H123], and all the nations[H1471] that are called[H7121] by my name[H8034], saith[H5002] Jehovah[H3068] that doeth this[H6213].

13. Behold[H3117], the days come[H935], saith[H5002] Jehovah[H3068], that the plowman[H2790] shall overtake[H5066] the reaper[H7114], and the treader[H1869] of grapes[H6025] him that soweth[H4900] seed[H2233]; and the mountains[H2022] shall drop[H5197] sweet wine[H6071], and all the hills[H1389] shall melt[H4127].

14. And I will bring back[H7725] the captivity[H7622] of my people[H5971] Israel[H3478], and they shall build[H1129] the waste[H8074] cities[H5892], and inhabit[H3427] them[H5193]; and they shall plant vineyards[H3754], and drink[H8354] the wine[H3196] thereof[H6213]; they shall also make gardens[H1593], and eat[H398] the fruit of them[H6529].

15. And I will plant[H5193] them upon their land[H127], and they shall no more be plucked up[H5428] out of their land[H127] which I have given[H5414] them[H559], saith Jehovah[H3068] thy God[H430].
