Commentary for Amos 9:10

בַּחֶ֣רֶב יָמ֔וּתוּ כֹּ֖ל חַטָּאֵ֣י עַמִּ֑י הָאֹמְרִ֗ים לֹֽא־תַגִּ֧ישׁ וְתַקְדִּ֛ים בַּעֲדֵ֖ינוּ הָרָעָֽה׃

All the sinners of My people shall die by the sword, That say: ‘The evil shall not overtake nor confront us.’ .

Rashi on Amos

“The evil shall not soon come upon us.”—Because of our iniquities, the evil shall not hasten to approach and to come.
