Amos 9 (NKJV)

Amos 9 NO HIGHLIGHTS HIGHLIGHTS
9:1 I saw the Lord standing by the altar, and He said: ''Strike the doorposts, that the thresholds may shake, And break them on the heads of them all. I will slay the last of them with the sword. He who flees from them shall not get away, And he who escapes from them shall not be delivered.
9:2 ''Though they dig into hell, From there my hand shall take them; Though they climb up to heaven, From there I will bring them down;
9:3 And though they hide themselves on top of Carmel, From there I will search and take them; Though they hide from My sight at the bottom of the sea, From there I will command the serpent, and it shall bite them;
9:4 Though they go into captivity before their enemies, From there I will command the sword, And it shall slay them. I will set My eyes on them for harm and not for good.''
9:5 The Lord GOD of hosts, He who touches the earth and it melts, And all who dwell there mourn; All of it shall swell like the River, And subside like the River of Egypt.
9:6 He who builds His layers in the sky, And has founded His strata in the earth; Who calls for the waters of the sea, And pours them out on the face of the earth - The LORD is His name.
9:7 ''Are you not like the people of Ethiopia to Me, O children of Israel?'' says the LORD. ''Did I not bring up Israel from the land of Egypt, The Philistines from Caphtor, And the Syrians from Kir?
9:8 ''Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD are on the sinful kingdom, And I will destroy it from the face of the earth; Yet I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,'' Says the LORD.
9:9 ''For surely I will command, And will sift the house of Israel among all nations, As grain is sifted in a sieve; Yet not the smallest grain shall fall to the ground.
9:10 All the sinners of My people shall die by the sword, Who say, 'The calamity shall not overtake nor confront us'.
9:11 ''On that day I will raise up The tabernacle of David, which has fallen down, And repair its damages; I will raise up its ruins, And rebuild it as in the days of old;
9:12 That they may possess the remnant of Edom, And all the Gentiles who are called by My name,'' Says the LORD who does this thing.
9:13 ''Behold, the days are coming,'' says the LORD, ''When the plowman shall overtake the reaper, And the treader of grapes him who sows seed; The mountains shall drip with sweet wine, And all the hills shall flow with it.
9:14 I will bring back the captives of My people Israel; They shall build the waste cities and inhabit them; They shall plant vineyards and drink wine from them; They shall also make gardens and eat fruit from them.
9:15 I will plant them in their land, And no longer shall they be pulled up From the land I have given them,'' Says the LORD your God.
