Joel 2:1

Blow a trumpet in Zion,
And sound an alarm on My holy mountain!
Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble,
For the day of the Lord is coming;
Surely it is near,

Joel 2:2

A day of darkness and gloom,
A day of clouds and thick darkness.
As the dawn is spread over the mountains,
So there is a great and mighty people;
There has never been anything like it,
Nor will there be again after it
To the years of many generations.

And behind them a flame burns.

But a desolate wilderness behind them,
And nothing at all escapes them.

And like war horses, so they run.

All faces turn pale.

They climb the wall like soldiers;

They march everyone in his path;

The sun and the moon grow dark
And the stars lose their brightness.

Joel 2:12

“Yet even now,” declares the Lord,
“Return to Me with all your heart,
And with fasting, weeping and mourning;

For He is gracious and compassionate,
Slow to anger, abounding in lovingkindness
And relenting of evil.

Who knows whether He will not turn and relent
And leave a blessing behind Him,
Even a grain offering and a drink offering
For the Lord your God?

And the bride out of her bridal chamber.

Joel 2:17

Let the priests, the Lord’s ministers,
Weep between the porch and the altar,

‘Where is their God?’”

And I will drive it into a parched and desolate land,

And its rear guard into the western sea.

For it has done great things.”
