²“Son of man, this is what the Sovereign Lord says to the land of Israel:

“‘The end!^(A) The end has come
    upon the four corners^(B) of the land!
³The end is now upon you,
    and I will unleash my anger against you.
I will judge you according to your conduct^(C)
    and repay you for all your detestable practices.^(D)
⁴I will not look on you with pity;^(E)
    I will not spare you.
I will surely repay you for your conduct
    and for the detestable practices among you.

“‘Then you will know that I am the Lord.’^(F)

Amos 5:16-20

New International Version

¹⁶Therefore this is what the Lord, the Lord God Almighty, says:

“There will be wailing^(A) in all the streets^(B)
    and cries of anguish in every public square.
The farmers^(C) will be summoned to weep
    and the mourners to wail.
¹⁷There will be wailing^(D) in all the vineyards,
    for I will pass through^(E) your midst,”
says the Lord.^(F)

The Day of the Lord

¹⁸Woe to you who long
    for the day of the Lord!^(G)
Why do you long for the day of the Lord?^(H)
    That day will be darkness,^(I) not light.^(J)
¹⁹It will be as though a man fled from a lion
    only to meet a bear,^(K)
as though he entered his house
    and rested his hand on the wall
    only to have a snake bite him.^(L)
²⁰Will not the day of the Lord be darkness,^(M) not light—
    pitch-dark, without a ray of brightness?^(N)
