Amós 9
La Biblia de las Américas
9 Vi al Señor de pie junto al altar(A), y me dijo:
Golpea los capiteles y que se estremezcan los umbrales(B),
y rómpelos sobre la cabeza de todos(C).
Entonces mataré a espada al resto de ellos(D);
no habrá entre ellos fugitivo que huya(E),
ni refugiado de ellos que escape.
2 Aunque caven hasta el Seol[a](F),
de allí los tomará mi mano;
y aunque suban al cielo,
de allí los haré bajar(G).
3 Aunque se escondan en la cumbre del Carmelo,
allí[b] los buscaré y los tomaré(H);
aunque se oculten de[c] mis ojos en el fondo del mar(I),
allí[d] ordenaré a la serpiente que los muerda(J).
4 Aunque vayan al cautiverio delante de sus enemigos,
allí[e] ordenaré a la espada que los mate(K),
y pondré sobre ellos mis ojos para mal y no para bien(L).
5 El Señor, Dios[f] de los ejércitos:
el que toca la tierra(M), y esta se derrite(N),
y se lamentan todos los que en ella habitan,
sube toda ella como el Nilo(O)
y mengua como el Nilo de Egipto;
6 el que edifica en los cielos sus altos aposentos[g](P),
y sobre la tierra ha establecido su bóveda;
el que llama a las aguas del mar
y las derrama sobre la faz de la tierra(Q):
el Señor es su nombre(R).
7 ¿No sois vosotros para mí como hijos de Etiopía[h](S),
oh hijos de Israel? —declara el Señor.
¿No hice yo subir a Israel de la tierra de Egipto(T)
y a los filisteos de Caftor(U) y a los arameos de Kir(V)?
8 He aquí, los ojos del Señor Dios están sobre el reino pecador(W),
y yo lo destruiré de sobre la faz de la tierra(X);
sin embargo, no destruiré totalmente a la casa de Jacob(Y) —declara el Señor.
9 Porque he aquí, yo daré un mandato,
y zarandearé a la casa de Israel entre todas las naciones,
como se zarandea el grano en la criba(Z),
sin que caiga ni un grano[i] en tierra.
10 A espada morirán todos los pecadores de mi pueblo(AA),
los que dicen: «No nos alcanzará ni se nos acercará la desgracia(AB)».
Restauración del pueblo de Dios
11 En aquel día levantaré el tabernáculo[j] caído de David(AC),
repararé sus brechas(AD),
levantaré sus ruinas,
y lo reedificaré como en tiempo pasado(AE),
12 para que tomen posesión(AF) del remanente de Edom(AG)
y de todas las naciones[k] donde se invoca mi nombre(AH)
—declara el Señor, que hace esto.
13 He aquí, vienen días —declara el Señor—
cuando el arador alcanzará al segador,
y el que pisa la uva al que siembra la semilla(AI);
cuando destilarán vino dulce los montes(AJ),
y todas las colinas se derretirán.
14 Restauraré el bienestar[l] de mi pueblo Israel(AK),
y ellos reedificarán las ciudades asoladas(AL) y habitarán en ellas(AM);
también plantarán viñas(AN) y beberán su vino,
y cultivarán[m] huertos y comerán sus frutos.
15 Los plantaré en su tierra,
y no serán arrancados jamás de la tierra
que les he dado(AO)
—dice el Señor tu Dios.

Amos 9
King James Version
9 I saw the Lord standing upon the altar: and he said, Smite the lintel of the door, that the posts may shake: and cut them in the head, all of them; and I will slay the last of them with the sword: he that fleeth of them shall not flee away, and he that escapeth of them shall not be delivered.
2 Though they dig into hell, thence shall mine hand take them; though they climb up to heaven, thence will I bring them down:
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.
6 It is he that buildeth his stories in the heaven, and hath founded his troop in the earth; he that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The Lord is his name.
7 Are ye not as children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel? saith the Lord. Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt? and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir?
8 Behold, the eyes of the Lord God are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; saving that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith the Lord.
9 For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth.
10 All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, which say, The evil shall not overtake nor prevent us.
11 In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old:
12 That they may possess the remnant of Edom, and of all the heathen, which are called by my name, saith the Lord that doeth this.
13 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed; and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt.
14 And I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them.
15 And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be pulled up out of their land which I have given them, saith the Lord thy God.

Israel to Be Destroyed
9 I saw the Lord standing by the altar, and he said:
“Strike the tops of the pillars
so that the thresholds shake.
Bring them down on the heads(A) of all the people;
those who are left I will kill with the sword.
Not one will get away,
none will escape.(B)
2 Though they dig down to the depths below,(C)
from there my hand will take them.
Though they climb up to the heavens above,(D)
from there I will bring them down.(E)
3 Though they hide themselves on the top of Carmel,(F)
there I will hunt them down and seize them.(G)
Though they hide from my eyes at the bottom of the sea,(H)
there I will command the serpent(I) to bite them.(J)
4 Though they are driven into exile by their enemies,
there I will command the sword(K) to slay them.
5 The Lord, the Lord Almighty—
he touches the earth and it melts,(O)
and all who live in it mourn;
the whole land rises like the Nile,
then sinks like the river of Egypt;(P)
6 he builds his lofty palace[a](Q) in the heavens
and sets its foundation[b] on the earth;
he calls for the waters of the sea
and pours them out over the face of the land—
the Lord is his name.(R)
7 “Are not you Israelites
the same to me as the Cushites[c]?”(S)
declares the Lord.
“Did I not bring Israel up from Egypt,
the Philistines(T) from Caphtor[d](U)
and the Arameans from Kir?(V)
8 “Surely the eyes of the Sovereign Lord
are on the sinful kingdom.
I will destroy(W) it
from the face of the earth.
Yet I will not totally destroy
the descendants of Jacob,”
declares the Lord.(X)
9 “For I will give the command,
and I will shake the people of Israel
among all the nations
as grain(Y) is shaken in a sieve,(Z)
and not a pebble will reach the ground.(AA)
10 All the sinners among my people
will die by the sword,(AB)
all those who say,
‘Disaster will not overtake or meet us.’(AC)
Israel’s Restoration
11 “In that day
“I will restore David’s(AD) fallen shelter(AE)—
I will repair its broken walls
and restore its ruins(AF)—
and will rebuild it as it used to be,(AG)
12 so that they may possess the remnant of Edom(AH)
and all the nations that bear my name,[e](AI)”
declares the Lord, who will do these things.(AJ)
13 “The days are coming,”(AK) declares the Lord,
“when the reaper(AL) will be overtaken by the plowman(AM)
and the planter by the one treading(AN) grapes.
New wine(AO) will drip from the mountains
and flow from all the hills,(AP)
14 and I will bring(AQ) my people Israel back from exile.[f](AR)
“They will rebuild the ruined cities(AS) and live in them.
They will plant vineyards(AT) and drink their wine;
they will make gardens and eat their fruit.(AU)
15 I will plant(AV) Israel in their own land,(AW)
never again to be uprooted(AX)
from the land I have given them,”(AY)
says the Lord your God.(AZ)
