Amos 5:18-20

New Catholic Bible

¹⁸ Woe to those who long for the day of the Lord.
    What will this day of the Lord mean to you?
It will mean darkness, not light,
¹⁹     as if someone fled from a lion
    and was met by a bear,
or entered his house
    and rested his hand against the wall
    and was bitten by a snake.
²⁰ Will not the day of the Lord
    be darkness, not light,
    day of gloom without any brightness?
