Amos

Speaks against injustice and predicts Israel's punishment but ends with hope for restoration.

Chapter 9

KJV - Amos 9:4

And though they go into captivity before their enemies, thence will I command the sword, and it shall slay them: and I will set mine eyes upon them for evil, and not for good.

Even if they are captured by their enemies, I will order the sword to kill them. I will watch them with bad intentions, not good ones.
