Amos 9:4-6

International Standard Version

⁵ “The Lord God of the Heavenly Armies
who is touching the earth so that it melts
    and all of its inhabitants mourn there—
        the land rises like the Nile^[b] River,
        but sinks like the river of Egypt—
⁶ who is building his stairway to heaven
    and setting its foundation on earth;
who is calling for the waters of the sea
    and pouring them out over the surface of the land—
        the Lord is his name!
