Amos 9:2-4
Contemporary English Version
2 “If they dig deep into the earth
or climb to the sky,
I'll reach out and get them.
3 If they escape to the peaks
of Mount Carmel,
I'll search and find them.
And if they hide from me
at the bottom of the ocean,
I'll command a sea monster
to bite them.
4 I'll send a sword to kill them,
wherever their enemies
drag them off as captives.
I'm determined to hurt them,
not to help them.”
Amos 9:2-4
New International Version
2 Though they dig down to the depths below,(A)
from there my hand will take them.
Though they climb up to the heavens above,(B)
from there I will bring them down.(C)
3 Though they hide themselves on the top of Carmel,(D)
there I will hunt them down and seize them.(E)
Though they hide from my eyes at the bottom of the sea,(F)
there I will command the serpent(G) to bite them.(H)
4 Though they are driven into exile by their enemies,
there I will command the sword(I) to slay them.
