And the needy for a pair of sandals—
Even sell the bad wheat?”
And the needy for a pair of sandals—
Even sell the bad wheat?”
8 aShall the land not tremble for this,
And everyone mourn who dwells in it?
All of it shall swell like1 the River,
Heave and subside
bLike the River of Egypt.
And everyone mourn who dwells in it?
All of it shall swell like1 the River,
Heave and subside
bLike the River of Egypt.
9 “And it shall come to pass in that day,” says the Lord God,
a“That I will make the sun go down at noon,
And I will darken the earth in1 broad daylight;
a“That I will make the sun go down at noon,
And I will darken the earth in1 broad daylight;
10 I will turn your feasts into amourning,
bAnd all your songs into lamentation;
cI will bring sackcloth on every waist,
And baldness on every head;
I will make it like mourning for an only son,
And its end like a bitter day.
bAnd all your songs into lamentation;
cI will bring sackcloth on every waist,
And baldness on every head;
I will make it like mourning for an only son,
And its end like a bitter day.
