7 The Lord has sworns by the Pride of Jacob:E,t

I will never forget all their deeds.u

8 Because of this, won’t the land quakev

and all who dwell in it mourn?w

All of it will rise like the Nile;x

it will surge and then subside

like the Nile in Egypt.y

9 And in that day—

this is the declaration of the Lord God—

I will make the sun go down at noon;z

I will darken the land in the daytime.aa

10 I will turn your feasts into mourningab

and all your songs into lamentation;ac

I will cause everyoneF to wear sackclothad

and every head to be shaved.ae

I will make that grief

like mourning for an only sonaf

and its outcome like a bitter day.
