Amos 8:8-10
New Life Version
8 Will not the land shake because of this? Will not everyone who lives in it be filled with sorrow? All of it will rise up like the Nile. It will be troubled, and will fall like the Nile River of Egypt. 9 On that day,” says the Lord God, “I will make the sun go down at noon. I will make the earth dark in the daytime. 10 I will turn your special suppers into times of sorrow, and all your songs into songs of sorrow. I will make all of you wear cloth made from hair, and cut all the hair from your heads. I will fill that time with sorrow, as if an only son had died. 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)
