Isaiah 8:20-22
EasyEnglish Bible
20 When they say that to you, remember my teaching. Tell them what I have said will happen. People who talk like that are completely in the dark. There is no truth in what they say. 21 Then the people will travel through the land, and they will be sad and hungry. Because of their hunger they will become angry.[a] They will curse their king and their God, as they look up to the sky. 22 They will look down at the earth, but they will only see trouble. Everywhere will be dark and people will have no hope. Then they will fall into complete darkness.

Isaiah 8:20-22
New International Version
20 Consult God’s instruction(A) and the testimony of warning.(B) If anyone does not speak according to this word, they have no light(C) of dawn. 21 Distressed and hungry,(D) they will roam through the land;(E) when they are famished, they will become enraged and, looking upward, will curse(F) their king and their God. 22 Then they will look toward the earth and see only distress and darkness and fearful gloom,(G) and they will be thrust into utter darkness.(H)
