Amos 9:4-6

New Catholic Bible

⁴ If they are led by their enemies into captivity,
    there I shall command the sword to slay them.
I will fix my eyes on them
    for evil, and not for good.

⁵ The Lord, the God of hosts,
    touches the earth and it melts
    so that all who live on it mourn,
while the entire earth rises up like the Nile^[a]
    and then subsides like the River of Egypt.
⁶ He builds his upper chambers in the heavens
    and establishes his vault of the sky over the earth—
    the Lord is his name.
