Amos 9:1
|
|
I saw the Lord standing beside the altar: and
he said, Smite the capitals, that the thresholds may shake; and break them in
pieces on the head of all of them; and I will slay the last of them with the sword:
there shall not one of them flee away, and there shall not one of them escape. |
|
|
|
|

bite them. |

|
| |
|
|
|
Amos 9:6

all the nations that are called by my name, saith Jehovah that doeth this. |
