Amos 8:8-10
Legacy Standard Bible
8 Because of this will not the land (A)tremble
And everyone who inhabits it (B)mourn?
Indeed, all of it will (C)rise up like the Nile,
And it will be tossed about
And subside like the Nile of Egypt.
9 And it will be in that day,” declares Lord Yahweh,
“That I will make the (D)sun go down at noon
And (E)make the earth dark in [a]broad daylight.
10 Then I will (F)overturn your feasts into mourning
And all your songs into [b]lamentation;
And I will bring up (G)sackcloth on everyone’s loins
And baldness on every head.
And I will make it (H)like a time of mourning for an only son,
And the end of it will be like a bitter day.
Amos 8:8-10
New International Version
8 “Will not the land tremble(A) for this,
and all who live in it mourn?
The whole land will rise like the Nile;
it will be stirred up and then sink
like the river of Egypt.(B)
9 “In that day,” declares the Sovereign Lord,
“I will make the sun go down at noon
and darken the earth in broad daylight.(C)
10 I will turn your religious festivals(D) into mourning
and all your singing into weeping.(E)
I will make all of you wear sackcloth(F)
and shave(G) your heads.
I will make that time like mourning for an only son(H)
and the end of it like a bitter day.(I)
Amos 8:8-10
King James Version
8 Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwelleth therein? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood; and it shall be cast out and drowned, as by the flood of Egypt.
9 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord God, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day:
10 And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring up sackcloth upon all loins, and baldness upon every head; and I will make it as the mourning of an only son, and the end thereof as a bitter day.
