8 Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD Are upon the sinful kingdom, And I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; Saving that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, Saith the LORD. 9 For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all the nations, Like as corn is sifted in a sieve, Yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth. 10 All the sinners of My people shall die by the sword, That say: 'The evil shall not overtake nor confront us.' Amos 9:8-10, JPS Tanakh 1917. Public domain.
