Amos 9:5-6

5The Lord 1God of hosts, The One who 2touches the land so that it melts, And 3all those who dwell in it mourn, And all of it rises up like the Nile And subsides like the Nile of Egypt;6The One who builds His 4 5upper chambers in the heavens And has founded His vaulted dome over the earth, He who 6calls for the waters of the sea And 7pours them out on the face of the earth, 8The Lord is His name.
