Amos 5:16-18
16Therefore this is what the Lord God of armies, the Lord says: “There is 1mourning in all the public squares, And in all the streets they say, ‘Oh no! Oh no!’ They also call the 2farmer to mourning And 34professional mourners to mourning rites.17And in all the 5vineyards there is mourning, Because I will pass through the midst of you,” says the Lord.
18Woe to you who are longing for the 6day of the Lord, For what 7purpose will the day of the Lord be to you? It will be 8darkness and not light;
