Amos 8:7-10
7The LordH3068 has 1swornH7650 by the 2prideH1347 of JacobH3290, “IndeedH518, I will 3neverH518H5331 forgetH7911 anyH3605 of their deedsH4639.8BecauseH5921 of thisH2088 will not the landH776 4quakeH7264 And everyoneH3605 who dwellsH3427 in it 5mournH56? Indeed, allH3605 of it will 6riseH5927 up like the NileH2975, And it will be tossedH1644 aboutH1644 And subsideH8257 like the NileH2975 of EgyptH4714.9It will comeH1961 about in that dayH3117,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068, “That I will make the 7sunH8121 goH935 down at noonH6672 And 8makeH2821 the earthH776 darkH2821 in 9broadH216 daylightH3117H216.10Then I will 10turnH2015 your festivalsH2282 into mourningH60 And allH3605 your songsH7892 into 11lamentationH7015; And I will bringH5927 12sackclothH8242 on everyone’sH3605 loinsH4975 And baldnessH7144 on everyH3605 headH7218. And I will makeH7760 it 13like a time of mourningH60 for an onlyH3173 sonH3173, And the endH319 of it will be like a bitterH4751 dayH3117.
