Amos 9:8-15
8Behold, the 1eyes of the Lord God are on the sinful kingdom, And I will 2destroy it from the face of the earth; Nevertheless, I will 3not totally destroy the house of Jacob,” Declares the Lord.9“For behold, I am commanding, And I will 4shake the house of Israel among all nations As grain is shaken in a sieve, But not a 5kernel will fall to the ground.10All the 6sinners of My people will die by the sword, Those who say, ‘7The calamity will not overtake or confront us.’
11“In that day I will 8raise up the fallen 910booth of David, And wall up its 11breaches; I will also raise up its ruins And rebuild it as in the 12days of old;1213That they may possess the remnant of 14Edom And all the 15nations who are 16called by My name,” Declares the Lord who does this.
13“Behold, days are coming,” declares the Lord, “When the 17plowman will overtake the reaper And the treader of grapes him who sows seed; When the 18mountains will drip sweet 19wine And all the hills will be dissolved.14Also I will 20restore the 21captivity of My people Israel, And they will 22rebuild the ruined cities and live in them; They will also 23plant vineyards and drink their wine, And make gardens and eat their fruit.15I will also plant them on their land, And 24they will not again be rooted out from their land Which I have given them,” Says the Lord your God.
