(Some words not found in UHB: made_of pleiades and,orion and,turns into_the,morning deep_darkness and,day night darkens the,calls for,waters_of the=sea and,pours_~_out,them on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in face/surface_of the=earth/land YHWH his/its=name )

By declaring his name, Yahweh is declaring his power and authority to do these things.
5:8-9 Amos quotes a second hymn fragment (see 4:13; 9:5-6). Once again, the prophet emphasizes the contrast between the cosmic God and the local gods.
• Stars, celestial bodies, and constellations such as Pleiades and Orion were regarded as deities in the ancient world. Not so, says Amos; the Lord made them and placed them in the sky.
• water: The ancients had observed a process that they did not understand (evaporation and condensation). However, the Lord understands and controls natural processes that seem mysterious to humans.
