Isaiah 8:21

The Darkness Turns To Light

²⁰ To the law and to the testimony! If not, let them say after this manner, 'That there is no dawn to it.' ²¹  -- And it hath passed over into it, hardened and hungry, And it hath come to pass, That it is hungry, and hath been wroth, And made light of its king, and of its God, And hath looked upwards. ²² And unto the land it looketh attentively, And lo, adversity and darkness! -- Dimness, distress, and thick darkness is driven away, But not the dimness for which she is in distress!
