Amos 9:5 in Context — Amos 9
3 E se se escondessem no topo do Carmelo, ali eu os buscaria e os tomaria; e ainda que se escondessem de diante de meus olhos no fundo do mar, até ali mandia uma serpente para os morder.
4 E se forem levados em cativeiro diante de seus inimigos, ali mandarei a espada que os matará; e porei meus olhos sobre eles para o mal, e não para o bem.
5 Pois o Senhor DEUS dos exércitos é o que toca a terra, e ela se derrete, e choram todos os que nela moram; ela toda subirá como um rio, e se afundará como o rio do Egito.
6 Ele edificou suas câmaras no céu, e fundou seu alicerce sobre a terra; ele chama as águas do mar e as derrama sobre a terra. EU-SOU é o seu nome.
7 Vós, filhos de Israel, por acaso não sois para mim como os filhos de Etíopes? Diz o SENHOR. Por acaso eu não fiz subir a Israel desde a terra do Egito, assim como os filisteus desde Caftor, e os sírios desde Quir?
