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.

11 Look, the days are coming—

this is the declaration of the Lord God—

when I will send a famine through the land:

not a famine of bread or a thirst for water,

but of hearing the words of the Lord.ag
