Amos 5:18-20

¹⁸Woe to you who long for the Day of the LORD!

What will the Day of the LORD be for you?

It will be darkness and not light.

¹⁹It will be like a man who flees from a lion,

only to encounter a bear,

or who enters his house and rests his hand against the wall,

only to be bitten by a snake.

²⁰Will not the Day of the LORD

be darkness and not light,

even gloom with no brightness in it?

— Amos 5:18-20
