NASB Bible (with Strong's Numbers)

Amos 9

God's Judgment Unavoidable

1

I sawh7200 the Lordh136 standingh5324 besideh5921 the  aaltarh4196, and He saidh559, "Smiteh5221 the capitalsh3730 so that the  bthresholdsh5592b will shakeh7493, And  cbreakh1214 them on the headsh7218 of them allh3605! Then I will  dslayh2026 the resth319 of them with the swordh2719; They will  enot have a fugitiveh5127 who will fleeh5127, Or a refugeeh6412a who will escapeh4422.

2

"Thoughh518 they digh2864 into  aSheolh7585, From thereh8033 will My handh3027 takeh3947 them; And thoughh518 they  bascendh5927 to heavenh8064, From thereh8033 will I bringh3381 them downh3381.

3

"Thoughh518 they hideh2244 on the summith7218 of Carmelh3760, I will  asearchh2664 them out and takeh3947 them from thereh8033; And thoughh518 they  bconcealh5641 themselves from My sighth5869 on the floorh7172 of the seah3220, From thereh8033 I will commandh6680 the  cserpenth5175 and it will biteh5391a them.

4

"And thoughh518 they goh1980 into  acaptivityh7628b beforeh6440 their enemiesh340, From thereh8033 I will commandh6680 the swordh2719 that it slayh2026 them, And I will  bseth7760 My eyesh5869 againsth5921 them for evilh7463a and not for goodh2899b."

5

The Lordh136  1GODh3068 of hostsh6635, The One who  atouchesh5060 the landh776 so that it meltsh4127, And  ballh3605 those who dwellh3427 in it mournh56, And allh3605 of it risesh5927 up like the Nileh2975 And subsidesh8257 like the Nileh2975 of Egypth4714;

6

The One who buildsh1129 His  1 aupperh4609b chambersh4609b in the heavensh8064 And has foundedh3245 His vaultedh92 domeh92 overh5921 the earthh776, He who  bcallsh7121 for the watersh4325 of the seah3220 And  cpoursh8210 them out on the faceh6440 of the earthh776,  dThe LORDh3068 is His nameh8034.

7

"Are you not as the sonsh1121 of  aEthiopiah3569 to Me, O sonsh1121 of Israelh3478?" declaresh5002 the LORDh3068. "Have I not broughth5927 up Israelh3478 from the landh776 of Egypth4714, And the  bPhilistinesh6430 from Caphtorh3731 and the  cArameansh758 from  dKirh7024b?

8

"Beholdh2009, the  aeyesh5869 of the Lordh136 GODh3068 are on the sinfulh2400 kingdomh4467, And I will  bdestroyh8045 it from the faceh6440 of the earthh127; Neverthelessh657h3588, I will  cnot totallyh8045 destroyh8045 the househ1004 of Jacobh3290," Declaresh5002 the LORDh3068.

9

"For beholdh2009, I am commandingh6680, And I will  ashakeh5128 the househ1004 of Israelh3478 among allh3605 nationsh1471 As grain is shakenh5128 in a sieveh3531, But not a  1kernelh6872b will fallh5307 to the groundh776.

10

"Allh3605 the  asinnersh2400 of My peopleh5971a will dieh4191 by the swordh2719, Those who sayh559, ` bThe calamityh7463a will not overtakeh5066 or confronth6923 us.'

The Restoration of Israel

11

"In that dayh3117 I will  araiseh6965 up the fallenh5307  1 bboothh5521 of Davidh1732, And wallh1443 up its  cbreachesh6556; I will also raiseh6965 up its ruinsh2034b And rebuildh1129 it as in the  ddaysh3117 of oldh5769;

12

 aThat they may possessh3423 the remnanth7611 of  bEdomh112b And allh3605 the  1nationsh1471 whoh834 are  ccalledh7121 by My nameh8034," Declaresh5002 the LORDh3068 who doesh6213a thish2088.

13

"Beholdh2009, daysh3117 are comingh935," declaresh5002 the LORDh3068, "When the  aplowmanh2790a will overtakeh5066 the reaperh7114b And the treaderh1869 of grapesh6025 him who sowsh4900 seedh2233; When the  bmountainsh2022 will driph5197 sweeth6071  cwineh6071 And allh3605 the hillsh1389 will be dissolvedh4127.

14

"Also I will  arestoreh7725 the  1captivityh7622 of My peopleh5971a Israelh3478, And they will  brebuildh1129 the ruinedh8074 citiesh5892b and liveh3427 in them; They will also  cplanth5193 vineyardsh3754 and drinkh8354 their wineh3196, And makeh6213a gardensh1593 and eath398 their fruith6529.

15

"I will also planth5193 them on their landh127, And  athey will not againh5750 be rootedh5428 out from their landh127 Whichh834 I have givenh5414 them," Saysh559 the LORDh3068 your Godh430.
