Amos 9:8-10

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁸Behold, the eyes of the Lord God are upon the sinful kingdom,
    and I will destroy it from the surface of the ground;
    except that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,”
                says the Lord.

⁹“For lo, I will command,
    and shake the house of Israel among all the nations
as one shakes with a sieve,
    but no pebble shall fall upon the earth.
¹⁰All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword,
    who say, ‘Evil shall not overtake or meet us.’
