Amos 9:7-15

7Are ye not as childrenH1121 of the CushitesH3569 to me, O childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478? saithH5002 the LORDH3068. Have not I brought upH5927 IsraelH3478 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714? and the PhilistinesH6430 from CaphtorH3731, and the SyriansH758 from KirH7024? 8Behold, the eyesH5869 of the LordH136 GODH3069 are upon the sinfulH2403 kingdomH4467, and I will destroyH8045 it from off the faceH6440 of the earthH127; exceptH657 that I will not utterlyH8045 destroyH8045 the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. 9For, lo, I will commandH6680, and I will siftH5128 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 among all nationsH1471, like as grain is siftedH5128 in a sieveH3531, yet shall not the smallest grainH6872 fallH5307 upon the earthH776.12 10All the sinnersH2400 of my peopleH5971 shall dieH4191 by the swordH2719, who sayH559, The evilH7451 shall not overtakeH5066 nor fall uponH6923 us.

11In that dayH3117 will I raise upH6965 the tabernacleH5521 of DavidH1732 that is fallenH5307, and close upH1443 its breachesH6556; and I will raise upH6965 its ruinsH2034, and I will buildH1129 it as in the daysH3117 of oldH5769:3 12That they may possessH3423 the remnantH7611 of EdomH123, and of all the heathenH1471, who are calledH7121 by my nameH8034, saithH5002 the LORDH3068 that doethH6213 this.4 13Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that the plowmanH2790 shall overtakeH5066 the reaperH7114, and the treaderH1869 of grapesH6025 him that sowethH4900 seedH2233; and the mountainsH2022 shall dropH5197 sweet wineH6071, and all the hillsH1389 shall meltH4127.56 14And I will bring againH7725 the captivityH7622 of my peopleH5971 of IsraelH3478, and they shall buildH1129 the wasteH8074 citiesH5892, and inhabitH3427 them ; and they shall plantH5193 vineyardsH3754, and drinkH8354 the wineH3196 of them; they shall also makeH6213 gardensH1593, and eatH398 the fruitH6529 of them. 15And I will plantH5193 them upon their landH127, and they shall no more be pulled upH5428 out of their landH127 which I have givenH5414 them, saithH559 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430.
