Amos 9:2-4

Common English Bible

²     If they dig through into the underworld,^[a]
        from there my hand will take them.
    If they climb up to the heavens,
        from there I will bring them down.
³     If they hide themselves on the top of Carmel,
        I will search for them there and remove them.
    If they hide from my sight at the bottom of the sea,
        I will give an order to the sea serpent, and it will bite them.
⁴     If they are forced from their homes before their enemies,
        there I will give an order to the sword, and it will kill them.
    I will fix my eyes on them
        for harm and not for good.
