Amos 8:9-12

Amos 8:9-12 CSB

And in that day — this is the declaration of the Lord  GOD  — I will make the sun go down at noon;  I will darken the land in the daytime.  I will turn your feasts into mourning  and all your songs into lamentation;  I will cause everyone  to wear sackcloth  and every head to be shaved.  I will make that grief like mourning for an only son  and its outcome like a bitter day. Look, the days are coming — this is the declaration of the Lord  GOD  — when I will send a famine through the land: not a famine of bread or a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the  LORD.  People will stagger from sea to sea and roam from north to east seeking the word of the  LORD,  but they will not find it.
