Amos 9:7-9
New American Standard Bible 1995
7 “Are you not as the sons of (A)Ethiopia to Me,
O sons of Israel?” declares the Lord.
“Have I not brought up Israel from the land of Egypt,
And the (B)Philistines from Caphtor and the (C)Arameans from (D)Kir?
8 “Behold, the (E)eyes of the Lord God are on the sinful kingdom,
And I will (F)destroy it from the face of the earth;
Nevertheless, I will (G)not totally destroy the house of Jacob,”
Declares the Lord.
9 “For behold, I am commanding,
And I will (H)shake the house of Israel among all nations
As grain is shaken in a sieve,
But not a [a]kernel will fall to the ground.
