Amos 9:8-15
8Behold, the 1eyes of the Lord God are on the sinful kingdom, And I will 2eliminate it from the face of the earth; Nevertheless, I will 3not totally eliminate 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 pebble will fall to the ground.10All the 5sinners of My people will die by the sword, Those who say, ‘6The catastrophe will not overtake or confront us.’
11“On that day I will 7raise up the fallen 89shelter of David, And wall up its 10gaps; I will also raise up its ruins And rebuild it as in the 11days of old;1212So that they may 13possess 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 one who treads grapes will overtake him who sows the seed; When the 18mountains will drip grape juice, And all the hills will come apart.14I will also 19restore the fortunes of My people Israel, And they will 20rebuild the desolated cities and live in them; They will also 21plant vineyards and drink their wine, And make gardens and eat their fruit.15I will also plant them on their land, And 22they will not be uprooted again from their land Which I have given them,” Says the Lord your God.
