Amos 9:3 in Context — Amos 9
1 Je vis le Seigneur qui se tenait sur l’autel. Et il dit: Frappe les chapiteaux et que les seuils s’ébranlent, Et brise-les sur leurs têtes à tous! Je ferai périr le reste par l’épée. Aucun d’eux ne pourra se sauver en fuyant, Aucun d’eux n’échappera.
2 S’ils pénètrent dans le séjour des morts, Ma main les en arrachera; S’ils montent aux cieux, Je les en ferai descendre.
3 S’ils se cachent au sommet du Carmel, Je les y chercherai et je les saisirai; S’ils se dérobent à mes regards dans le fond de la mer, Là j’ordonnerai au serpent de les mordre.
4 S’ils vont en captivité devant leurs ennemis, Là j’ordonnerai à l’épée de les faire périr; Je dirigerai contre eux mes regards Pour faire du mal et non du bien.
5 Le Seigneur, l’Éternel des armées, touche la terre, et elle tremble, Et tous ses habitants sont dans le deuil; Elle monte tout entière comme le fleuve, Et elle s’affaisse comme le fleuve d’Égypte.
