Amos 9:4-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 9
4
And though they go into captivity before their enemies,
From there I will command the sword and it will kill them,
And I will set My eyes against them for harm and not for good.'
5
The Lord
God
of armies,
The One who touches the land so that it quakes,
And all those who live in it mourn,
And all of it rises up like the Nile
And subsides like the Nile of Egypt;
6
The One who builds His upper chambers in the heavens
And has founded His vaulted dome over the earth,
He who calls for the waters of the sea
And pours them out on the face of the earth,
The
Lord
is His name.
7
'Are you not as the sons of Ethiopia to Me,
You sons of Israel?' declares the
Lord
.
'Have I not brought up Israel from the land of Egypt,
And the Philistines from Caphtor and the Arameans from Kir?
8
Behold, the eyes of the Lord
God
are on the sinful kingdom,
And I will eliminate it from the face of the earth;
Nevertheless, I will not totally eliminate the house of Jacob,'
Declares the
Lord
.
9
'For behold, I am commanding,
And I will shake the house of Israel among all nations
As
grain
is shaken in a sieve,
But not a pebble will fall to the ground.
King James Version
Chapter 9
4
And though they go 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
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.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 9
4
And if they are driven
by their enemies into captivity,
from there I will command
the sword to kill them.
I will keep my eye on them
for harm and not for good.
5
The Lord, the
God
of Armies—
he touches the earth;
it melts, and all who dwell in it mourn;
all of it rises like the Nile
and subsides like the Nile of Egypt.
6
He builds his upper chambers
in the heavens
and lays the foundation of his vault
on the earth.
He summons the water of the sea
and pours it out over the surface of the earth.
The
Lord
is his name.
7
Israelites, are you not like the Cushites to me? This is the
Lord
’s declaration. Didn’t I bring Israel from the land of Egypt,
the Philistines from Caphtor,
and the Arameans from Kir?
8
Look, the eyes of the Lord
God
are on the sinful kingdom,
and I will obliterate it
from the face of the earth.
However, I will not totally destroy
the house of Jacob — this is the
Lord
’s declaration—
9
for I am about to give the command,
and I will shake the house of Israel
among all the nations,
as one shakes a sieve,
but not a pebble will fall to the ground.
New Living Translation
Chapter 9
4
Even if their enemies drive them into exile,
I will command the sword to kill them there.
I am determined to bring disaster upon them
and not to help them.'
5
The Lord, the
Lord
of Heaven’s Armies,
touches the land and it melts,
and all its people mourn.
The ground rises like the Nile River at floodtime,
and then it sinks again.
6
The
Lord
’s home reaches up to the heavens,
while its foundation is on the earth.
He draws up water from the oceans
and pours it down as rain on the land.
The
Lord
is his name!
7
'Are you Israelites more important to me
than the Ethiopians? ' asks the
Lord
.
'I brought Israel out of Egypt,
but I also brought the Philistines from Crete
and led the Arameans out of Kir.
8
'I, the Sovereign
Lord
,
am watching this sinful nation of Israel.
I will destroy it
from the face of the earth.
But I will never completely destroy the family of Israel, '
says the
Lord
.
9
'For I will give the command
and will shake Israel along with the other nations
as grain is shaken in a sieve,
yet not one true kernel will be lost.
English Standard Version

And if they go into captivity before their enemies,
there I will command the sword, and it shall kill them;
and I will fix my eyes upon them
for evil and not for good."
5
The Lord
God
of hosts,
he who touches the earth and it melts,
and all who dwell in it mourn,
and all of it rises like the Nile,
and sinks again, like the Nile of Egypt;
6
who builds his upper chambers in the heavens
and founds his vault upon the earth;
who calls for the waters of the sea
and pours them out upon the surface of the earth —
the
Lord
is his name.
7
"Are you not like the Cushites to me,
O people of Israel?" declares the
Lord

God
are upon the sinful kingdom,

Lord
.

and shake the house of Israel among all the nations
as one shakes with a sieve,

New International Version

4
Though they are driven into exile by their enemies,
there I will command the sword to slay them. "I will keep my eye on them
for harm and not for good."
5
The Lord, the
Lord
Almighty—
he touches the earth and it melts,
and all who live in it mourn;
the whole land rises like the Nile,
then sinks like the river of Egypt;
6
he builds his lofty palace in the heavens
and sets its foundation on the earth;
he calls for the waters of the sea
and pours them out over the face of the land—
the
Lord
is his name.
7
"Are not you Israelites
the same to me as the Cushites ?"
declares the
Lord
.
"Did I not bring Israel up from Egypt,
the Philistines from Caphtor
and the Arameans from Kir?
8
"Surely the eyes of the Sovereign
Lord
are on the sinful kingdom.
I will destroy it
from the face of the earth.
Yet I will not totally destroy
the descendants of Jacob,"
declares the
Lord
.
9
"For I will give the command,
and I will shake the people of Israel
among all the nations
as grain is shaken in a sieve,
and not a pebble will reach the ground.
New King James Version

From there I will command the sword,
And it shall slay them.
I will set My eyes on them for harm and not for good.”
5
The Lord
God
of hosts,
He who touches the earth and it melts,
And all who dwell there mourn;
All of it shall swell like the River,
And subside like the River of Egypt.
6
He who builds His layers in the sky,
And has founded His strata in the earth;
Who calls for the waters of the sea,
And pours them out on the face of the earth—
The
Lord
is
His name.
7

Are
you not like the people of Ethiopia to Me,

The Philistines from Caphtor,
And the Syrians from Kir?

God
are
on the sinful kingdom,
And I will destroy it from the face of the earth;
Yet I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,”

Lord

As
grain
is sifted in a sieve;
Yet not the smallest grain shall fall to the ground.
