Walk through Amos, verse by verse, with the great Bible Commentaries of Matthew Henry (1662 - 1714) & Adam Clarke (1760 - 1832)
9:10
All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, which say, The evil shall not overtake nor prevent us. KJV
{All sinners of my people shall die by sword, which say, Evil shall not nigh, and shall not come
on us.} Wycliffe's Bible
All the sinners of my people - Those who are the boldest and most incredulous; especially they who despise my warnings, and say the evil day shall not overtake nor prevent us; they shall die by the sword. It is no evidence of a man's safety that he is presumptuously fearless. There is a blessing to him who trembles at God's word.
