Amos 9:4-8

Amos 9:4-8

[4] into captivity  before  their enemies,  thence will I command  the sword,  and it shall slay  them: and I will set  mine eyes  upon them for evil,  and not for good.  [5] And the Lord  GOD  of hosts  is he that toucheth  the land,  and it shall melt,  and all that dwell  therein shall mourn:  and it shall rise up  wholly like a flood;  and shall be drowned,  as by the flood  of Egypt.  [6] It is he that buildeth  his stories  in the heaven,  and hath founded  his troop  in the earth;  he that calleth  for the waters  of the sea,  and poureth them out  upon the face  of the earth:  The LORD  is his name.  [7] Are ye not as children  of the Ethiopians  unto me, O children  of Israel?  saith  the LORD.  Have not I brought up  Israel  out of the land  of Egypt?  and the Philistines  from Caphtor,  and the Syrians  from Kir?  [8] Behold, the eyes  of the Lord  GOD  kingdom,  and I will destroy  it from off the face  of the earth;  saving  that I will not utterly  the house  of Jacob,  saith  the LORD.
