Amos 8:12 - Forerunner Commentary

Amos 8:12

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.

11 “Behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord God,
“That I will send a famine on the land,
Not a famine of bread,
Nor a thirst for water,
But ^aof hearing the words of the Lord.

12 They shall wander from sea to sea,
And from north to east;
They shall run to and fro, seeking the word of the Lord,
But shall ^anot find it.

13 “In that day the fair virgins
And strong young men
Shall faint from thirst.

14 Those who ^aswear by ^bthe sin of Samaria,
Who say,
‘As your god lives, O Dan!’
And, ‘As the way of ^cBeersheba lives!’
They shall fall and never rise again.”
