Woe to you who desire the day of Yahweh! Why do you long for the day of Yahweh? It is darkness, and not light.

As if a man fled from a lion, and a bear met him; Or he went into the house and leaned his hand on the wall, and a snake bit him.

20

Won't the day of Yahweh be darkness, and not light? Even very dark, and no brightness in it?

I hate, I despise your feasts, and I can't stand your solemn assemblies.

22

Yes, though you offer me your burnt offerings and meal offerings, I will not accept them; neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat animals.
