Amos 9:3
| ← Amos 9:2 | Amos 9:3 (KJV) | Amos 9:4 → |
|---|---|---|
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:
|
And though they go into captivity before their enemies, thence will I command the sword, and it shall slay them: and I will set mine eyes upon them for evil, and not for good.
