Amos 5:20
World English Bible (WEB)
Won’t the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? Even very dark, and no brightness in it?
In context
18 “Woe to you who desire the day of the LORD! Why do you long for the day of the LORD? It is darkness, and not light.
19 As if a man fled from a lion, and a bear met him; or he went into the house and leaned his hand on the wall, and a snake bit him.
20 Won’t the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? Even very dark, and no brightness in it?
21 I hate, I despise your feasts, and I can’t stand your solemn assemblies.
22 Yes, though you offer me your burnt offerings and meal offerings, I will not accept them; neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat animals.
