Amos 9:2-6
2Though they dig down to Sheol, from there My hand will take them; and though they climb up to heaven, from there I will pull them down.3Though they hide themselves atop Carmel, there I will track them and seize them; and though they hide from Me at the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent1 to bite them.4Though they are driven by their enemies into captivity, there I will command the sword to slay them. I will fix My eyes upon them for harm and not for good.”
5The Lord GOD of Hosts,He who touches the earth and it melts,and all its dwellers mourn—all the land rises like the Nile,then sinks like the river of Egypt—6He builds His upper rooms in the heavensand founds His vault upon the earth.He summons the waters of the seaand pours them over the face of the earth.The LORD is His name.
