Amos 9:12 in Context — Amos 9

10 Morrerão à espada todos os pecadores de meu povo, que dizem: O mal não chegará a nós, nem nos encontrará.

11 Naquele dia voltarei a levantar a caída tenda de Davi; fecharei seus brechas, repararei suas ruínas, e a reconstruirei como nos dias antigos,

12 Para que tomem posse do restante de Edom, e todas as nações que se chamam pelo meu nome, diz o SENHOR, que faz isto.

13 Eis que vêm dias, diz o SENHOR, em que o que ara alcançará ao que colhe, e o que pisa as uvas ao que leva a semente; e os montes destilarão suco de uva, e todos os morros se derreterão.

14 E restaurarei meu povo Isarael de seu infortúnio; então reconstruirão as cidades assoladas, e nelas habitarão; e plantarão vinhas, e beberão o vinho delas; e farão jardins, e comerão o fruto deles.
