2 Chronicles 15:5-6

5 In those times there was no peace ^ato him who went out or to him who came in, for great disturbances afflicted all the inhabitants of the lands. 6 They were broken in pieces. Nation was crushed by nation and city by city, for God troubled them with every sort of distress.

30 They will growl over it on that day,
like the growling of the sea.

and the light is darkened by its clouds.

Isaiah 9:1

For to Us a Child Is Born

1 ^{▼▼Ch 8:23 in Hebrew} But there will be no ^dgloom for her who was in anguish. In the former time he ^ebrought into contempt the land of ^fZebulun and the land of Naphtali, but in the latter time he ^ghas made glorious the way of the sea, the land beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations. ^{▼▼Or of the Gentiles}

Jeremiah 13:16

16 ⁱGive glory to the Lord your God
^jbefore he brings darkness,
before your feet stumble
on the twilight mountains,
and ^kwhile you look for light
he turns it into gloom
and makes it ^ldeep darkness.

Jeremiah 30:6-7

6 Ask now, and see,
can a man bear a child?
^mWhy then do I see every man
with his hands on his stomach ⁿlike a woman in labor?
^oWhy has every face turned pale?
7 Alas! ^pThat day is so great
^qthere is none like it;
it is a time of distress for Jacob;
yet he shall be saved out of it.

Amos 5:18-20

Let Justice Roll Down

18 Woe to you who desire ^rthe day of the Lord!
Why would you have the day of the Lord?
^sIt is darkness, and not light,
19 ^tas if a man fled from a lion,
and a bear met him,
or went into the house and leaned his hand against the wall,
and a serpent bit him.
20 ^uIs not the day of the Lord darkness, and not light,
and gloom with no brightness in it?

Zephaniah 1:14-15

14 ^vThe great day of the Lord is near,
near and hastening fast;
the sound of the day of the Lord is bitter;
^wthe mighty man cries aloud there.
15 ^xA day of wrath is that day,
a day of distress and anguish,
a day of ^yruin and devastation,
^za day of darkness and gloom,
^aaa day of clouds and thick darkness,
