'Lord' in the Bible

The word of the Lord that came to Joel son of Pethuel:

Grain and drink offerings have been cut offfrom the house of the Lord;the priests, who are ministers of the Lord, mourn.

Announce a sacred fast;proclaim an assembly!Gather the eldersand all the residents of the landat the house of the Lord your God,and cry out to the Lord.

Woe because of that day!For the Day of the Lord is nearand will come as devastation from the Almighty.

I call to You, Lord,for fire has consumedthe pastures of the wilderness,and flames have devouredall the trees of the countryside.

Blow the horn in Zion;sound the alarm on My holy mountain!Let all the residents of the land tremble,for the Day of the Lord is coming;in fact, it is near—

The Lord raises His voicein the presence of His army.His camp is very large;Those who carry out His command are powerful.Indeed, the Day of the Lord is terrible and dreadful—who can endure it?

Tear your hearts,not just your clothes,and return to the Lord your God.For He is gracious and compassionate,slow to anger, rich in faithful love,and He relents from sending disaster.

Who knows? He may turn and relentand leave a blessing behind Him,so you can offer grain and wineto the Lord your God.

Let the priests, the Lord’s ministers,weep between the portico and the altar.Let them say:“Have pity on Your people, Lord,and do not make Your inheritance a disgrace,an object of scorn among the nations.Why should it be said among the peoples,‘Where is their God?’”

Then the Lord became jealous for His land and spared His people.

The Lord answered His people:Look, I am about to send yougrain, new wine, and olive oil.You will be satiated with them,and I will no longer make youa disgrace among the nations.

Don’t be afraid, land;rejoice and be glad,for the Lord has done great things.

Children of Zion, rejoice and be gladin the Lord your God,because He gives you the autumn rainfor your vindication.He sends showers for you,both autumn and spring rain as before.

You will know that I am present in Israeland that I am Yahweh your God,and there is no other.My people will never again be put to shame.

The sun will be turned to darknessand the moon to bloodbefore the great and awe-inspiring Day of the Lord comes.

Then everyone who callson the name of Yahweh will be saved,for there will be an escapefor those on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem,as the Lord promised,among the survivors the Lord calls.

I will sell your sons and daughters into the hands of the people of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabeans, to a distant nation, for the Lord has spoken.

Come quickly, all you surrounding nations;gather yourselves.Bring down Your warriors there, Lord.

Multitudes, multitudesin the valley of decision!For the Day of the Lord is nearin the valley of decision.

The Lord will roar from Zionand raise His voice from Jerusalem;heaven and earth will shake.But the Lord will be a refuge for His people,a stronghold for the Israelites.

Then you will knowthat I am Yahweh your God,who dwells in Zion, My holy mountain.Jerusalem will be holy,and foreigners will never overrun it again.

I will pardon their bloodguilt,which I have not pardoned,for the Lord dwells in Zion.
