Amos 8:11-13

Modern English Version

¹¹ The time is coming, says the Lord God,
    when I will send a famine on the land,
not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water,
    but of hearing the words of the Lord.
¹² They will wander from sea to sea,
    and from north to east;
they will run back and forth to seek the word of the Lord,
    but they will not find it.

the beautiful maidens and the young men
    will faint with thirst.
