8. Shall the land not tremble for this,And everyone mourn who dwells in it?All of it shall swell like the River,Heave and subsideLike the River of Egypt.
9. “And it shall come to pass in that day,” says the Lord God,“That I will make the sun go down at noon,And I will darken the earth in broad daylight;
10. I will turn your feasts into mourning,And all your songs into lamentation;I will bring sackcloth on every waist,And baldness on every head;I will make it like mourning for an only son,And its end like a bitter day.
11. “Behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord God,“That 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.
