Amos 5:18-20

NIRV

NIV

18 How terrible it will be for you who long for the day of the Lord! Why do you want it to come? That day will be dark, not light.
18 Woe to you who long for the day of the LORD! Why do you long for the day of the LORD? That day will be darkness, not light.
19 It will be like a man running away from a lion only to meet a bear. He enters his house and rests his hand on a wall only to be bitten by a snake.
19 It will be as though a man fled from a lion only to meet a bear, as though he entered his house and rested his hand on the wall only to have a snake bite him.
20 The day of the LORD will be dark, not light. It will be very black. There won't be a ray of sunlight anywhere.
20 Will not the day of the LORD be darkness, not light— pitch-dark, without a ray of brightness?
