The Eternal has sworn by the pride of Jacob, the very land He gave to them:

Eternal One: I will not forget anything that Israel has done.
    Won’t the land beneath their feet tremble for this,
        and everyone who lives in it mourn?
    The ground will rise and fall like the river Nile, which floods and recedes;
        it will ripple and roll like the current of Egypt’s Nile.

The Eternal Lord says,

Eternal One: On that day, I will make the sun set at noon
        and send darkness across the earth when it should be broad daylight.
