Amos 9:2-6
2Though they digH2864 into hellH7585, thence shall mine handH3027 takeH3947 them; though they climb upH5927 to heavenH8064, thence will I bring them downH3381:
3And though they hideH2244 themselves in the topH7218 of CarmelH3760, I will searchH2664 and take them outH3947 thence; and though they be hidH5641 from my sightH5869 in the bottomH7172 of the seaH3220, thence will I commandH6680 the serpentH5175, and he shall biteH5391 them:
4And though they goH3212 into captivityH7628 beforeH6440 their enemiesH341, thence will I commandH6680 the swordH2719, and it shall slayH2026 them: and I will setH7760 mine eyesH5869 upon them for evilH7451, and not for goodH2896.
5And the LordH136 YhwhH3069 of ArmiesH6635 is he that touchethH5060 the landH776, and it shall meltH4127, and all that dwellH3427 therein shall mournH56: and it shall rise upH5927 wholly like a floodH2975; and shall be drownedH8257, as by the floodH2975 of EgyptH4714.
6It is he that buildethH1129 his chambersH4609 in the heavenH8064, and hath foundedH3245 his vaultH92 in the earthH776; he that callethH7121 for the watersH4325 of the seaH3220, and poureth them outH8210 upon the faceH6440 of the earthH776: YhwhH3068 is his nameH8034.12
