Wake up ye drunkards, and weep: mourn all ye wine sippers because of your sweet wine, for it shall be taken away from your mouth.

For the meat and drink offering shall be taken away from the house of the LORD: and the priests, the LORD's ministers, shall mourn.

The field shall be wasted, the land shall be in a miserable cause: for the corn shall be destroyed, the sweet wine shall come to confusion, and the oil utterly desolate.

The husbandmen and the wine gardeners shall look piteously, and make lamentation for the wheat, wine and barley; and because the harvest upon the field is so clean destroyed.

Gird you, and make your moan, O ye priests: mourn ye ministers of the alter: go your way in, and sleep in sackcloth, O ye officers of my God: for the meat and drink offering shall be taken away from the house of your God.

Alas, alas for this day. And why? the day of the LORD is at hand, and cometh as a destroyer from the Almighty.

The seed shall perish in the ground, the garners shall lie waste, the floors shall be broken down, for the corn shall be destroyed.

O LORD, to thee will I cry: for the fire hath consumed the goodly pastures of the wilderness, and the flame hath burnt up all the trees of the field.

Yea, the wild beasts cry also unto thee: for the water rivers are dried up, and the fire hath consumed the pastures of the wilderness.

Blow out the trumpet in Zion, and cry upon my holy hill: that all such as dwell in the land, may tremble at it. For the day of the LORD cometh, and is hard at hand:

a dark and gloomy day, a cloudy and black day. As the morning is spread over the mountains, so it this populous and strong people: such as have not been since the beginning, neither shall be after them for evermore.

Before him shall be a consuming fire, and behind him a burning flame. The land shall be as a garden of pleasure before him, but behind him shall it be a very waste wilderness, and there is no man, that shall escape him.

They skipped up upon the hills, as it were the sound of chariots; as the flame of fire that consumeth the straw, and as a mighty people ready to the battle.

The LORD shall show his voice before his host, for his host is great, strong and mighty to fulfill his commandment. This is that great and marvelous fearful day of the LORD: And who is able to abide it?

And tear your hearts and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God. For he is full of mercy and compassion, long ere he be angry, and great in mercy and repentance when he is at the point to punish.

And the LORD envied for his land's sake and had compassion on his people.

Again, as for him of the North, I shall drive him far from you: and shoot him out into a dry and waste land, his face toward the east sea, and his hinder parts toward the utmost sea. The stink of him shall go up, and his filthy corruption shall fall upon himself, because he hath dealt so proudly."

Fear not, O land, but be glad and rejoice; for the LORD will do great things.

Be not ye afraid neither, O ye beasts of the field; for the pastures shall be green and the trees shall bear their fruit, the fig trees and vineyards shall give their increase.

Children of Zion, be glad and rejoice in the LORD your God. For he hath given you a teacher of righteousness, and will make descend unto you the first rain and the later, as at the beginning.

I will show wonders in heaven above, and tokens in the earth beneath: blood and fire, and the vapor of smoke.

And the time shall come: that whosoever calleth upon the name of the LORD, shall be saved. For upon the mount Zion and at Jerusalem, there shall be a salvation, like as the LORD hath promised. Yea, and among the other remnant, whom the LORD shall call.

For take heed: in those days and at the same time, when I turn again the captivity of Juda and Jerusalem,

Yea, they have cast lots for my people, the young men have they set in the brothel house, and sold the damsels for wine, that they might have to drink.

for ye have taken away my silver and gold, my fair and goodly jewels, and brought them into your gods' houses.

The children also of Judah and Jerusalem have ye sold unto the Greeks, that ye might bring them the far from the borders of their own countries.

Your sons and your daughters will I sell through the hands of the children of Judah, and so they shall give them forth to sell, unto them of Sheba, a people of a far country: for the LORD himself hath said it.

Let the people arise, and get them to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit, and judge all Heathen round about.

Lay to your scythes, for the harvest is ripe. Come, get you down: the winepress is full, yea the winepresses run over, for their wickedness is waxen great.

In the valley appointed, there shall be many, many people: for the day of the LORD is nigh in the valley appointed.

The LORD shall roar out of Zion, a cry out of Jerusalem; that the heavens and the earth shall quake withal. But the LORD shall be a defense to his own people, and a refuge for the children of Israel.
