KJV - Amos 8:10
And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring up sackcloth upon all loins, and baldness upon every head; and I will make it as the mourning of an only son, and the end thereof as a bitter day.
I will change your happy celebrations to sadness, and your songs to sad cries. I will make everyone wear rough cloth around their waists and have bald heads. It will be like the sadness of a single child losing their parent, and the end will be very hard.
