Amos 9:7-10

7Are ye not as childrenH1121 of the EthiopiansH3569 unto me, O childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478? saithH5002 YhwhH3068. Have not I brought upH5927 IsraelH3478 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714? and the PhilistinesH6430 from CaphtorH3731, and the SyriansH758 from KirH7024?

8Behold, the eyesH5869 of the LordH136 YhwhH3069 are upon the sinfulH2403 kingdomH4467, and I will destroyH8045 it from off the faceH6440 of the earthH127; savingH657 that I will not utterlyH8045 destroyH8045 the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, saithH5002 YhwhH3068.

9For, lo, I will commandH6680, and I will siftH5128 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 among all nationsH1471, like as wheat is siftedH5128 in a sieveH3531, yet shall not the least grainH6872 fallH5307 upon the earthH776.12

10All the sinnersH2400 of my peopleH5971 shall dieH4191 by the swordH2719, which sayH559, The evilH7451 shall not overtakeH5066 nor preventH6923 us.
