Amos 9:7-10
New International Version
Amos 9:7-10
New International Version
7 “Are not you Israelites
the same to me as the Cushites[a]?”(A)
declares the Lord.
“Did I not bring Israel up from Egypt,
the Philistines(B) from Caphtor[b](C)
and the Arameans from Kir?(D)
8 “Surely the eyes of the Sovereign Lord
are on the sinful kingdom.
I will destroy(E) it
from the face of the earth.
Yet I will not totally destroy
the descendants of Jacob,”
declares the Lord.(F)
9 “For I will give the command,
and I will shake the people of Israel
among all the nations
as grain(G) is shaken in a sieve,(H)
and not a pebble will reach the ground.(I)
10 All the sinners among my people
will die by the sword,(J)
all those who say,
‘Disaster will not overtake or meet us.’(K)

King James Version
Amos 9:7-10
King James Version
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 are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; saving that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith the Lord.
9 For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth.
10 All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, which say, The evil shall not overtake nor prevent us.
