amos 5:17 And in all vineyards shall be wailing: for I will pass through thee, saith the LORD.

amos 5:17 "And in all the vineyards [there is] wailing, Because I shall pass through the midst of you," says the LORD.

17. in all vineyards . . . wailing--where usually songs of joy were heard.
pass through thee--taking vengeance (Ex 12:12, 23; Na 1:12). "Pass over" and "pass by," on the contrary, are used of God's forgiving (Ex 12:23; Mic 7:18; compare Am 7:8).

amos 5:17 "And in all the vineyards [there is] wailing, Because I shall pass through the midst of you," says the LORD.
