Amos 9:10

The Destruction of Israel

9“For surely I will give the command, and I will shake the house of Israel among all the nations as grain is sifted in a sieve; but not a pebble will reach the ground. 10All the sinners among My people will die by the sword— all those who say, ‘Disaster will never draw near or confront us.’”
