Amos 9:3-5
Good News Translation
3 If they hide on the top of Mount Carmel, I will search for them and catch them. If they hide from me at the bottom of the sea, I will command the sea monster[a] to bite them. 4 If they are taken away into captivity by their enemies, I will order them to be put to death. I am determined to destroy them, not to help them.”
5 The Sovereign Lord Almighty touches the earth,
and it quakes;
all who live there mourn.
The whole world rises and falls like the Nile River.
Footnotes
- Amos 9:3 It was believed that the sea was inhabited by a great monster. This creature, like all others, was regarded as under God's control.
