Amos 9:12

Amos 9:12

10 All the sinners of My people shall die by the sword,
^aWho say, ‘The calamity shall not overtake nor confront us.’

Israel Will Be Restored

11 “On^a that day I will raise up
The¹ tabernacle of David, which has fallen down,
And¹ repair its damages;
I will raise up its ruins,
And rebuild it as in the days of old;

12 ^aThat they may possess the remnant of ^bEdom,
And all the Gentiles who are called by My name,”
Says the Lord who does this thing.

13 “Behold, ^athe days are coming,” says the Lord,
“When the plowman shall overtake the reaper,
And the treader of grapes him who sows seed;
^bThe mountains shall drip with sweet wine,
And all the hills shall flow with it.

14 ^aI will bring back the captives of My people Israel;
^bThey shall build the waste cities and inhabit them;
They shall plant vineyards and drink wine from them;
They shall also make gardens and eat fruit from them.

John Wesley's Notes

<< Amos 9:11

Amos 9:13 >>

They - Literally the Jews. Possess - Both the lands of Edom, and some of the posterity of Edom; these as servants, the other as their propriety. The remnant - Left by Nebuchadnezzar. All the heathen - That is, round about. That doth this - But this is also a prophecy of setting up the kingdom of the Messiah, and bringing in the Gentiles.
