*
Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD !
to what end is it for you ?
the day of the LORD is darkness ,
and not light .
*
As if a man did flee from a lion ,
and a bear met him ;
or went into the house ,
and leaned his hand on the wall ,
and a serpent bit him .
*
Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness ,
and not light ?
even very dark ,
and no brightness in it ?
*
I hate ,
I despise your feast days ,
and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies .
*
Though ye offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings ,
I will not accept them :
neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts .
*
Take thou away from me the noise of thy songs ;
for I will not hear the melody of thy viols .
*
But let judgment run down as waters ,
and righteousness as a mighty stream .
*
Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years ,
O house of Israel ?
*
But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images ,
the star of your god ,
which ye made to yourselves .
*
Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus ,
saith the LORD ,
whose name is The God of hosts .
