And he will be looking down on the earth, and there will be trouble and dark clouds, black night where there is no seeing.
For the upright there is a light shining in the dark; he is full of grace and pity.
And his voice will be loud over him in that day like the sounding of the sea: and if a man's eyes are turned to the earth, it is all dark and full of trouble; and the light is made dark by thick clouds.
For this cause our right is far from us, and righteousness does not overtake us: we are looking for light, but there is only the dark; for the shining of the sun, but our way is in the night.
