18Woe to those who long for the day of Yahweh! Why would you have the day of Yahweh? It is darkness, and not light.

19It will be as when a man flees from before the lion, and the bear meets him; then he enters the house and leans his hand on the wall, and the snake bites him.

20Is not the day of Yahweh darkness, and not light, and gloom with no brightness in it?
