9:1 I
saw
the
Lord
standing
beside
the
altar,
and
he
said:
"Strike
the
capitals
until
the
thresholds
shake,
and
shatter
them
on
the
heads
of
all
the
people;
and
those
who
are
left
of
them
I
will
kill
with
the
sword;
not
one
of
them
shall
flee
away;
not
one
of
them
shall
escape.
9:2 "If
they
dig
into
Sheol,
from
there
shall
my
hand
take
them;
if
they
climb
up
to
heaven,
from
there
I
will
bring
them
down.
9:3 If
they
hide
themselves
on
the
top
of
Carmel,
from
there
I
will
search
them
out
and
take
them;
and
if
they
hide
from
my
sight
at
the
bottom
of
the
sea,
there
I
will
command
the
serpent,
and
it
shall
bite
them.
9:4 And
if
they
go
into
captivity
before
their
enemies,
there
I
will
command
the
sword,
and
it
shall
kill
them;
and
I
will
fix
my
eyes
upon
them
for
evil
and
not
for
good."
9:5 The
Lord
GOD
of
hosts,
he
who
touches
the
earth
and
it
melts,
and
all
who
dwell
in
it
mourn,
and
all
of
it
rises
like
the
Nile,
and
sinks
again,
like
the
Nile
of
Egypt;
9:6 who
builds
his
upper
chambers
in
the
heavens
and
founds
his
vault
upon
the
earth;
who
calls
for
the
waters
of
the
sea
and
pours
them
out
upon
the
surface
of
the
earth--
the
LORD
is
his
name.
9:7 "Are
you
not
like
the
Cushites
to
me,
O
people
of
Israel"
declares
the
LORD.
"Did
I
not
bring
up
Israel
from
the
land
of
Egypt,
and
the
Philistines
from
Caphtor
and
the
Syrians
from
Kir
9:8 Behold,
the
eyes
of
the
Lord
GOD
are
upon
the
sinful
kingdom,
and
I
will
destroy
it
from
the
surface
of
the
ground,
except
that
I
will
not
utterly
destroy
the
house
of
Jacob,"
declares
the
LORD.
9:9 "For
behold,
I
will
command,
and
shake
the
house
of
Israel
among
all
the
nations
as
one
shakes
with
a
sieve,
but
no
pebble
shall
fall
to
the
earth.
9:10 All
the
sinners
of
my
people
shall
die
by
the
sword,
who
say,
'Disaster
shall
not
overtake
or
meet
us.'
9:11 "In
that
day
I
will
raise
up
the
booth
of
David
that
is
fallen
and
repair
its
breaches,
and
raise
up
its
ruins
and
rebuild
it
as
in
the
days
of
old,
9:12 that
they
may
possess
the
remnant
of
Edom
and
all
the
nations
who
are
called
by
my
name,"
declares
the
LORD
who
does
this.
9:13 "Behold,
the
days
are
coming,"
declares
the
LORD,
"when
the
plowman
shall
overtake
the
reaper
and
the
treader
of
grapes
him
who
sows
the
seed;
the
mountains
shall
drip
sweet
wine,
and
all
the
hills
shall
flow
with
it.
9:14 I
will
restore
the
fortunes
of
my
people
Israel,
and
they
shall
rebuild
the
ruined
cities
and
inhabit
them;
they
shall
plant
vineyards
and
drink
their
wine,
and
they
shall
make
gardens
and
eat
their
fruit.
9:15 I
will
plant
them
on
their
land,
and
they
shall
never
again
be
uprooted
out
of
the
land
that
I
have
given
them,"
says
the
LORD
your
God.
