Amos 8:9-11

English Standard Version

⁹ “And on that day,” declares the Lord God,
    ^(A)“I will make the sun go down at noon
    and darken the earth in broad daylight.
^10 (B)I will turn your feasts into mourning
    and all your songs into lamentation;
^(C)I will bring sackcloth on every waist
    ^(D)and baldness on every head;
^(E)I will make it like the mourning for an only son
    and the end of it like a bitter day.

¹¹ “Behold, the days are coming,” declares the Lord God,
    “when ^(F)I will send a famine on the land—
not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water,
    ^(G)but of hearing the words of the Lord.
