Amos 9:1-2

Common English Bible

    9 I saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and the Lord said:
    Strike the pillars until the foundations shake,
        shatter them on the heads of all the people.
    With the sword, I will kill the last of them;
        not one of them will flee,
        not one of them will escape.
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.
