All the sinners of my people will die by the sword, who say, 'Evil won't overtake nor meet us.'
For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, and yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth. All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, which say, The evil shall not overtake nor prevent us ( Amos 9:9-10 ).
