Amos 5:17

A Lament And Call To Repentance

¹⁶ Therefore, thus says Yahweh, the God of hosts, my Lord, "In all [of] the public squares [there will be] wailing, and in all [of] the streets [they will say], 'Alas, alas, alas!' They shall call [the] farmers to mourning and [to] wailing, to those who are skilled [in] lamentation. ¹⁷ And in all [of the] vineyards [there will be] wailing, because I will pass in your midst," says Yahweh. ¹⁸ Alas, those who desire the day of Yahweh, why [is] this for you the day of Yahweh? It [will be] darkness and not light!
