Amos 5:8-10
New American Standard Bible
8 He who made the (A)Pleiades and Orion,
And (B)changes deep darkness into morning,
[a]Who also (C)darkens day into night,
Who (D)calls for the waters of the sea
And pours them out on the surface of the earth,
The (E)Lord is His name.
9 It is He who (F)makes destruction flash upon the strong,
So that (G)destruction comes upon the fortress.
Amos 5:8-10
King James Version
8 Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The Lord is his name:
9 That strengtheneth the spoiled against the strong, so that the spoiled shall come against the fortress.
10 They hate him that rebuketh in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.
