Amos 9:8-10

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁸The eyes of the Lord God are upon the sinful kingdom,
and I will destroy it from the face of the earth
—except that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,
says the Lord.

⁹For lo, I will command,
    and shake the house of Israel among all the nations
as one shakes with a sieve,
    but no pebble shall fall to the ground.
¹⁰All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword,
    who say, ‘Evil shall not overtake or meet us.’
