Amos 5:9

A Lament And Call To Repentance

⁸ He who made the Pleiades and Orion
And changes deep darkness into morning,
Who also darkens day into night,
Who calls for the waters of the sea
And pours them out on the surface of the earth,
The Lord is His name.
⁹ It is He who flashes forth with destruction upon the strong,
So that destruction comes upon the fortress.
¹⁰ They hate him who reproves in the gate,
And they abhor him who speaks with integrity.

Destruction Comes
