Amos 9:7

[Verses 7–15 are included in the designated Sabbath reading that was read in all synagogues throughout the world on the same Sabbath that the State of Israel was proclaimed in 1948.]
Are you not like the children (sons) of Cush [the Ethiopians] to me, O children (sons) of Israel?
declares (says, proclaims) the Lord (Yahweh).
Did I not bring Israel up out of the land of Egypt,
and the Philistines from Kaftor [Crete, see Gen. 10:14]
and Aram (Syria) from Kir? [Hebr. kir means wall and is a place or area in Mesopotamia.]
