Amos 8:11-13

New International Reader's Version

“The days are coming
    when I will send hunger through the land.
But people will not be hungry for food.
    They will not be thirsty for water.
Instead, they will be hungry
    to hear a message from me.
¹² People will wander from the Dead Sea to the Mediterranean.
    They will travel from north to east.
They will look for a message from me.
    But they will not find it.

“the lovely young women and strong young men
    will faint because they are so thirsty.
