Isaiah 8:20-22

20 ^aTo the teaching and to the testimony! If they will not speak according to this word, it is because they have no ^bdawn. 21 They will pass through the land, ^{▼▼Hebrew it} greatly distressed and hungry. And when they are hungry, they will be enraged and will speak contemptuously against ^{▼▼Or speak contemptuously by} their king and their God, and turn their faces upward. 22 ^eAnd they will look to the earth, but behold, distress and darkness, the gloom of anguish. And they will be thrust into ^fthick darkness.
