In context

¹⁸Woe to you who long for the Day of the LORD! What will the Day of the LORD be for you? It will be darkness and not light.

¹⁹It will be like a man who flees from a lion, only to encounter a bear, or who enters his house and rests his hand against the wall, only to be bitten by a snake.

²⁰Will not the Day of the LORD be darkness and not light, even gloom with no brightness in it?

²¹“I hate, I despise your feasts! I cannot stand the stench of your solemn assemblies.

²²Even though you offer Me burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them; for your peace offerings of fattened cattle I will have no regard.
