Amos 5:19-21
American Standard Version

19 As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; [a]or went into the house and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him. 20 Shall not the day of Jehovah be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?

21 I hate, I despise your feasts, and I [b]will take no delight in your solemn assemblies.
