Amos 8:8-10

Expanded Bible

⁸ The whole ·land [or earth] will shake because of it,
    and everyone who lives in the land will ·cry for those who died [mourn].
The whole land will rise like the Nile;
    it will be ·shaken [stirred/heaved up], and then it will ·fall [sink; subside]
    like the Nile River in Egypt [^Cthe Nile flooded its banks each year].”
⁹ The Lord God says:
“·At that time [^LIn that day] I will cause the sun to go down at noon
    and make the earth dark ·on a bright day [in broad daylight].
¹⁰ I will change your festivals into ·days of crying for the dead [mourning],
    and all your songs will become ·songs of sadness [dirges; lamentation; weeping].
I will ·make all of you wear rough cloth to show your sadness [^Lput sackcloth on every waist];
    ·I will make you shave your heads as well [^L…and baldness on every head].
I will make it like ·a time of crying [mourning] for the death of an only son,
    and its end like the end of an ·awful [bitter] day.”
