Amos 9:8 in Context — Amos 9
6 Il a bâti sa demeure dans les cieux, Et fondé sa voûte sur la terre; Il appelle les eaux de la mer, Et les répand à la surface de la terre: L’Éternel est son nom.
7 N’êtes-vous pas pour moi comme les enfants des Éthiopiens, Enfants d’Israël? Dit l’Éternel. N’ai-je pas fait sortir Israël du pays d’Égypte, Comme les Philistins de Caphtor et les Syriens de Kir?
8 Voici, le Seigneur, l’Éternel, a les yeux sur le royaume coupable. Je le détruirai de dessus la face de la terre; Toutefois je ne détruirai pas entièrement la maison de Jacob, Dit l’Éternel.
9 Car voici, je donnerai mes ordres, Et je secouerai la maison d’Israël parmi toutes les nations, Comme on secoue avec le crible, Sans qu’il tombe à terre un seul grain.
10 Tous les pécheurs de mon peuple mourront par l’épée, Ceux qui disent: Le malheur n’approchera pas, ne nous atteindra pas.
