New Testament

Amos 9:9-15 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

9. for I am about to give the command,and I will shake the house of Israel among all the nations,as one shakes a sieve,but not a pebble will fall to the ground.

10. All the sinners among My people who say: “Disaster will never overtake or confront us,” will die by the sword.

11. In that dayI will restore the fallen booth of David: I will repair its gaps,restore its ruins, and rebuild it as in the days of old,

12. so that they may possessthe remnant of Edom and all the nationsthat are called by My name —this is the Lord’s declaration —He will do this.

13. Hear this! The days are coming —this is the Lord’s declaration —when the plowman will overtake the reaper and the one who treads grapes,the sower of seed.The mountains will drip with sweet wine,and all the hills will flow with it.

14. I will restore the fortunes of My people Israel. They will rebuild and occupy ruined cities, plant vineyards and drink their wine,make gardens and eat their produce.

15. I will plant them on their land,and they will never again be uprootedfrom the land I have given them. Yahweh your God has spoken.
