Amos 5:17-19
Orthodox Jewish Bible
17 And in all kramim (vineyards) shall be wailing; for I will pass through thee, saith Hashem.
18 Hoy unto you that desire the Yom Hashem! Why do ye seek it? The Yom Hashem is choshech, and not ohr.
19 As if a man did flee from an ari, and a dov met him; or went into the bais, and leaned his hand on the kir (wall), and a nachash bit him.

17 There will be wailing(A) in all the vineyards,
for I will pass through(B) your midst,”
says the Lord.(C)

18 Woe to you who long
for the day of the Lord!(D)
Why do you long for the day of the Lord?(E)
That day will be darkness,(F) not light.(G)
19 It will be as though a man fled from a lion
only to meet a bear,(H)
as though he entered his house
and rested his hand on the wall
only to have a snake bite him.(I)
