Amos 9:1-4
1I saw the Lord standing beside the 1altar, and He said, “Strike the pillar capitals so that the 2thresholds will shake, And 3break them on the heads of them all! Then I will 4put to death the rest of them with the sword; They will 5not have a fugitive who will flee, Nor a survivor who will escape.2Though they dig into 6Sheol, From there My hand will take them; And though they 7ascend to heaven, From there I will bring them down.3And though they hide on the summit of Carmel, I will 8track them down and take them from there; And though they 9hide themselves from My sight on the bottom of the sea, I will command the 10serpent from there, and it will bite them.4And though they go into 11captivity before their enemies, From there I will command the sword and it will kill them, And I will 12set My eyes against them for harm and not for good.”
