New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
Amos 8:8-10
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
8 Shall not the land tremble on this account,
and everyone mourn who lives in it,
and all of it rise like the Nile,
and be tossed about and sink again, like the Nile of Egypt?
9 On that day, says the Lord God,
I will make the sun go down at noon,
and 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 all loins,
and baldness on every head;
I will make it like the mourning for an only son,
and the end of it like a bitter day.

Amos 8:8-10

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)
