Amos 9:3-5
English Standard Version Anglicised
3 If they hide themselves on (A)the top of Carmel,
from there I will search them out and take them;
(B)and if they hide from my sight at the bottom of the sea,
there I will command the serpent, and it shall bite them.
4 (C)And if they go into captivity before their enemies,
there I will command the sword, and it shall kill them;
(D)and I will fix my eyes upon them
for evil and not for good.”
5 The Lord God of hosts,
he who touches the earth and (E)it melts,
and all who dwell in it mourn,
(F)and all of it rises like the Nile,
(G)and sinks again, like the Nile of Egypt;
Amos 9:3-5

there I will command the sword(F) to slay them.
Amos 9:3-5
King James Version
3 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:
4 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.
5 And the Lord God of hosts is he that toucheth the land, and it shall melt, and all that dwell therein shall mourn: and it shall rise up wholly like a flood; and shall be drowned, as by the flood of Egypt.
