Woe to you who desire the day of the LORD!
Why would you have the day of the LORD?
It is darkness, and not light;
as if a man fled from a lion,
and a bear met him;
or went into the house and leaned
with his hand against the wall,
and a serpent bit him.
Is not the day of the LORD darkness,
and not light,
and gloom with no brightness in it?“I hate, I despise your feasts,
and I take no delight in your solemn assemblies,
Even though you offer Me your burnt offerings
and cereal offerings,
I will not accept them,
and the peace offerings of your fatted beasts
I will not look upon.
Take away from me the noise of your songs;
to the melody of your harps
I will not listen.
But let justice roll down like waters,
and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.”–Amos 5:18-24 RSV
