Amos 9:7-9

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁷ Israelites, are you not like the Cushites to Me?^(A)
This is the Lord’s declaration.
Didn’t I bring Israel from the land of Egypt,
the Philistines from Caphtor,^[a](B)
and the Arameans from Kir?^(C)
8 Look, the eyes of the Lord God
are on the sinful kingdom,^(D)
and I will destroy it
from the face of the earth.^(E)
However, I will not totally destroy
the house of Jacob^(F)—
this is the Lord’s declaration—
⁹ for I am about to give the command,
and I will shake the house of Israel^(G)
among all the nations,
as one shakes a sieve,
but not a pebble will fall to the ground.
