Amos 8:7-9

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁷ The Lord has sworn by the pride of Jacob:
    “Surely I will never forget any of their deeds.
⁸ Shall not the land tremble on this account,
    and every one mourn who dwells in it,
and all of it rise like the Nile,
    and be tossed about and sink again, like the Nile of Egypt?”

⁹ “And on that day,” says the Lord God,
    “I will make the sun go down at noon,
    and darken the earth in broad daylight.
