8:9 In that day,” says the sovereign Lord, “I will make the sun set at noon,
and make the earth dark in the middle of the day. 1
8:10 I will turn your festivals into funerals, 2
and all your songs into funeral dirges.
I will make everyone wear funeral clothes 3
and cause every head to be shaved bald. 4
I will make you mourn as if you had lost your only son; 5
when it ends it will indeed have been a bitter day. 6
