Amos 5:19

The Day Of Yahweh

¹⁸ Alas, you who are longing for the day of the Lord,
For what purpose will the day of the Lord be to you?
It will be darkness and not light;
¹⁹ As when a man flees from a lion
And a bear meets him,
Or goes home, leans his hand against the wall
And a snake bites him.
²⁰ Will not the day of the Lord be darkness instead of light,
Even gloom with no brightness in it?

Face to Face

In that Day

And those destined for famine, to famine;
And those destined for captivity, to captivity.”’

I saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and He said,
“Smite the capitals so that the thresholds will shake,
And break them on the heads of them all!
Then I will slay the rest of them with the sword;
They will not have a fugitive who will flee,
Or a refugee who will escape.
