Joel » declares » God's judgment
Clang ye the trumpet in Zion, shout in my holy mountain: all the inhabitants of the land shall be moved, for the day of Jehovah is coming, for it is near. A day of darkness and of thick darkness; a day of cloud and gloom as the morning spread upon the mountains: great and strong people; the like to him was not from forever, and after him there shall not be added even to the years of generation and generation. Before him a fire devoured, and after him a flame shall burn; the land as the garden of Eden before him, and after him a desert of desolation; and also there was no escaping to him. read more.
His appearance as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen so shall they run. As the voice of chariots upon the heads of the mountains they shall leap, as the voice of a flame of fire devouring the stubble, as a strong people set in order for battle. From his face peoples shall be pained: all faces gathered a glow. They shall run as strong men; as men of war they shall come up upon the wall; and they shall go each in his ways; they shall not change their paths. And they shall not thrust a man his brother; they shall go a man in his high way: and in the midst of the javelin shall they fall, they shall not be cut in pieces. In the city they shall run up and down; on the wall shall they run, into the houses they shall come up, through the windows shall they come in as a thief. The earth was moved before his face; the heavens trembled: the sun and the moon were darkened, and the stars took away their shining: And Jehovah gave his voice before the face of his strength: for exceedingly great his camp, and strong he doing his word: for great the day of Jehovah, and exceedingly terrible; and who shall endure it?
