20 To the (a)(A)law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, it is because (B)they have no dawn. 21 They will pass through (b)the land (C)hard-pressed and famished, and it will turn out that when they are hungry, they will be enraged and curse (c)their king and their God as they face upward. 22 Then they will (D)look to the earth, and behold, distress and darkness, the gloom of anguish; and they will be (E)driven away into darkness.
