Isaiah 13:10

"The day of the Lord is darkness, and not light," Amos 5:18.

the constellations thereof The Heb. word (kěsîl) is used in the singular in Amos 5:8; Job 9:9; Job 38:31, of a particular constellation, probably Orion (but according to another tradition, the star Canopus). Its meaning, -fool" or -foolhardy rebel," seems to point to some legend of a Titan chained to the sky for his defiance of the gods (Job 38:31). In the plural ("the Orions") it denotes here Orion and other constellations that vie with it in brilliancy.
