As if a man fled from a lion, and a bear met him; or he went into the house and leaned his hand on the wall, and a snake bit him.

ગુજરાતીઆમોસ ૫:૧૯
તે તો જેમ કોઈ માણસને સિંહ પાસેથી જતાં, અને રીંછનો ભેટો થઈ જાય છે, અથવા ઘરમાં જાય અને ભીંતનો ટેકો લે, અને તેને સાપ કરડે તેવો દિવસ છે.
हिन्दीआमोस ५:१९
जैसा कोई सिंह से भागे और उसे भालू मिले; या घर में आकर दीवार पर हाथ टेके और साँप उसको डसे।

In context

17In all vineyards there will be wailing, for I will pass through the middle of you,” says the LORD.

18“Woe to you who desire the day of the LORD! Why do you long for the day of the LORD? It is darkness, and not light.

19As if a man fled from a lion, and a bear met him; or he went into the house and leaned his hand on the wall, and a snake bit him.

20Won’t the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? Even very dark, and no brightness in it?

21I hate, I despise your feasts, and I can’t stand your solemn assemblies.
