Amos 8:9-11
EasyEnglish Bible
9 The Lord God says, ‘At that time, I will make the sun go down at noon. I will make the earth become dark in the daytime. 10 Your parties will become funerals. You will not sing happy songs but you will weep. You will wear rough clothes and you will cut off all your hair. You will be as sad as if your only son had died. That will be a very bad day for you.’
11 The Lord God says, ‘Listen to me! At that time, I will cause you to be very hungry. It will not be because you need food and water. Instead, everyone in the land will want to hear a message from me.

New International Version
9 “In that day,” declares the Sovereign Lord,
“I will make the sun go down at noon
and darken the earth in broad daylight.(A)
10 I will turn your religious festivals(B) into mourning
and all your singing into weeping.(C)
I will make all of you wear sackcloth(D)
and shave(E) your heads.
I will make that time like mourning for an only son(F)
and the end of it like a bitter day.(G)
