Joel 2:1-11 - ESV Bible - Blow a trumpet in Zion; sound an alarm on my holy...

The Day of the Lord

1 ¹Blow a trumpet in ²Zion; sound an alarm on ³my holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, for ⁴the day of the LORD is coming; it is near,

2 ⁵a day of darkness and gloom, ⁶a day of clouds and thick darkness! Like blackness there is spread upon the mountains ⁷a great and powerful people; ⁸their like has never been before, nor will be again after them through the years of all generations.

3 ⁹Fire devours before them, and behind them a flame burns. The land is like ¹⁰the garden of Eden before them, but ¹¹behind them a desolate wilderness, and nothing escapes them.

4 ¹²Their appearance is like the appearance of horses, and like war horses they run.

5 ¹³As with the rumbling of chariots, they leap on the tops of the mountains, like the crackling of ¹⁴a flame of fire devouring the stubble, ¹⁵like a powerful army drawn up for battle.

6 Before them peoples are in anguish; ¹⁶all faces grow pale.

7 Like warriors they charge; like soldiers they scale the wall. They march each on his way; they do not swerve from their paths.

8 They do not jostle one another; ¹⁷each marches in his path; they burst through the weapons and are not halted.

9 ¹⁸They leap upon the city, they run upon the walls, ¹⁹they climb up into the houses, ²⁰they enter through the windows ²¹like a thief.

10 ²²The earth quakes before them; the heavens tremble. ²³The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining.

11 ²⁴The LORD utters his voice before ²⁵his army, for his camp is exceedingly great; ²⁶he who executes his word is powerful. ²⁷For the day of the LORD is ²⁸great and very awesome; ²⁹who can endure it?
