Amos 9:2
| ← Amos 9:1 | Amos 9:2 (KJV) | Amos 9:3 → |
|---|---|---|
I saw the Lord standing upon the altar: and he said, Smite the lintel of the door, that the posts may shake: and cut them in the head, all of them; and I will slay the last of them with the sword: he that fleeth of them shall not flee away, and he that escapeth of them shall not be delivered.
|
Though they dig into hell, thence shall mine hand take them; though they climb up to heaven, thence will I bring them down:
|
And though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out thence; and though they be hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, thence will I command the serpent, and he shall bite them:
