Amos 9:3-15

9:3

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:

9:4

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>_.

9:5

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>_.

9:6

[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}

9:7

[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>_?

9:8

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>_.

9:9

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}

9:10

All the sinners
<02400>

of my people
<05971>

shall die
<04191> (8799)

by the sword
<02719>_,

which say
<0559> (8802)_,

The evil
<07451>

shall not overtake
<05066> (8686)

nor prevent
<06923> (8686)

us.

9:11

In that day
<03117>

will I raise up
<06965> (8686)

the tabernacle
<05521>

of David
<01732>

that is fallen
<05307> (8802)_,

and close up
<01443> (8804)

the breaches
<06556>

thereof; and I will raise up
<06965> (8686)

his ruins
<02034>_,

and I will build
<01129> (8804)

it as in the days
<03117>

of old
<05769>_:

{close: Heb. hedge, or, wall}

9:12

That they may possess
<03423> (8799)

the remnant
<07611>

of Edom
<0123>_,

and of all the heathen
<01471>_,

which are called
<07121> (8738)

by my name
<08034>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>

that doeth
<06213> (8802)

this. {which...: Heb. upon whom my name is called}

9:13

Behold, the days
<03117>

come
<0935> (8802)_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

that the plowman
<02790> (8802)

shall overtake
<05066> (8738)

the reaper
<07114> (8802)_,

and the treader
<01869> (8802)

of grapes
<06025>

him that soweth
<04900> (8802)

seed
<02233>_;

and the mountains
<02022>

shall drop
<05197> (8689)

sweet wine
<06071>_,

and all the hills
<01389>

shall melt
<04127> (8709)_.

{soweth: Heb. draweth forth} {sweet: or, new}

9:14

And I will bring again
<07725> (8804)

the captivity
<07622>

of my people
<05971>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and they shall build
<01129> (8804)

the waste
<08074> (8737)

cities
<05892>_,

and inhabit
<03427> (8804)

[them]; and they shall plant
<05193> (8804)

vineyards
<03754>_,

and drink
<08354> (8804)

the wine
<03196>

thereof; they shall also make
<06213> (8804)

gardens
<01593>_,

and eat
<0398> (8804)

the fruit
<06529>

of them.

9:15

And I will plant
<05193> (8804)

them upon their land
<0127>_,

and they shall no more be pulled up
<05428> (8735)

out of their land
<0127>

which I have given
<05414> (8804)

them, saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_.
