Joel 2 (kjv)

Blow^H8628 ye the trumpet^H7782 in Zion^H6726, and sound an alarm^H7321 in my holy^H6944 mountain^H2022: let all the inhabitants^H3427 of the land^H776 tremble^H7264: for the day^H3117 of the LORD^H3068 cometh^H935, for it is nigh at hand^H7138;²A day^H3117 of darkness^H2822 and of gloominess^H653, a day^H3117 of clouds^H6051 and of thick darkness^H6205, as the morning^H7837 spread^H6566 upon the mountains^H2022: a great^H7227 people^H5971 and a strong^H6099; there hath not been^H1961 ever^H5769 the like, neither shall be any more^H3254 after^H310 it, even to the years^H8141 of many^H1755 generations^H1755.³A fire^H784 devoureth^H398 before^H6440 them; and behind^H310 them a flame^H3852 burneth^H3857: the land^H776 is as the garden^H1588 of Eden^H5731 before^H6440 them, and behind^H310 them a desolate^H8077 wilderness^H4057; yea, and nothing shall escape^H6413 them.⁴The appearance^H4758 of them is as the appearance^H4758 of horses^H5483; and as horsemen^H6571, so shall they run^H7323.⁵Like the noise^H6963 of chariots^H4818 on the tops^H7218 of mountains^H2022 shall they leap^H7540, like the noise^H6963 of a flame^H3851 of fire^H784 that devoureth^H398 the stubble^H7179, as a strong^H6099 people^H5971 set in battle^H4421 array^H6186.⁶Before their face^H6440 the people^H5971 shall be much pained^H2342: all faces^H6440 shall gather^H6908 blackness^H6289.⁷They shall run^H7323 like mighty men^H1368; they shall climb^H5927 the wall^H2346 like men^H582 of war^H4421; and they shall march^H3212 every one^H376 on his ways^H1870, and they shall not break^H5670 their ranks^H734:⁸Neither shall one^H376 thrust^H1766 another^H251; they shall walk^H3212 every one^H1397 in his path^H4546: and when they fall^H5307 upon the sword^H7973, they shall not be wounded^H1214.⁹They shall run to and fro^H8264 in the city^H5892; they shall run^H7323 upon the wall^H2346, they shall climb up^H5927 upon the houses^H1004; they shall enter in^H935 at the windows^H2474 like a thief^H1590.¹⁰The earth^H776 shall quake^H7264 before^H6440 them; the heavens^H8064 shall tremble^H7493: the sun^H8121 and the moon^H3394 shall be dark^H6937, and the stars^H3556 shall withdraw^H622 their shining^H5051:¹¹And the LORD^H3068 shall utter^H5414 his voice^H6963 before^H6440 his army^H2428: for his camp^H4264 is very^H3966 great^H7227: for he is strong^H6099 that executeth^H6213 his word^H1697: for the day^H3117 of the LORD^H3068 is great^H1419 and very^H3966 terrible^H3372; and who can abide^H3557 it?

¹²Therefore also now, saith^H5002 the LORD^H3068, turn^H7725 ye even to me with all your heart^H3824, and with fasting^H6685, and with weeping^H1065, and with mourning^H4553:¹³And rend^H7167 your heart^H3824, and not your garments^H899, and turn^H7725 unto the LORD^H3068 your God^H430: for he is gracious^H2587 and merciful^H7349, slow^H750 to anger^H639, and of great^H7227 kindness^H2617, and repenteth^H5162 him of the evil^H7451.¹⁴Who knoweth^H3045 if he will return^H7725 and repent^H5162, and leave^H7604 a blessing^H1293 behind^H310 him; even a meat offering^H4503 and a drink offering^H5262 unto the LORD^H3068 your God^H430?

¹⁵Blow^H8628 the trumpet^H7782 in Zion^H6726, sanctify^H6942 a fast^H6685, call^H7121 a solemn assembly^H6116:¹⁶Gather^H622 the people^H5971, sanctify^H6942 the congregation^H6951, assemble^H6908 the elders^H2205, gather^H622 the children^H5768, and those that suck^H3243 the breasts^H7699: let the bridegroom^H2860 go forth^H3318 of his chamber^H2315, and the bride^H3618 out of her closet^H2646.¹⁷Let the priests^H3548, the ministers^H8334 of the LORD^H3068, weep^H1058 between the porch^H197 and the altar^H4196, and let them say^H559, Spare^H2347 thy people^H5971, O LORD^H3068, and give^H5414 not thine heritage^H5159 to reproach^H2781, that the heathen^H1471 should rule over^H4910 them: wherefore should they say^H559 among the people^H5971, Where is their God^H430?

¹⁸Then will the LORD^H3068 be jealous^H7065 for his land^H776, and pity^H2550 his people^H5971.¹⁹Yea, the LORD^H3068 will answer^H6030 and say^H559 unto his people^H5971, Behold, I will send^H7971 you corn^H1715, and wine^H8492, and oil^H3323, and ye shall be satisfied^H7646 therewith: and I will no more make^H5414 you a reproach^H2781 among the heathen^H1471:²⁰But I will remove far off^H7368 from you the northern^H6830 army, and will drive^H5080 him into a land^H776 barren^H6723 and desolate^H8077, with his face^H6440 toward the east^H6931 sea^H3220, and his hinder part^H5490 toward the utmost^H314 sea^H3220, and his stink^H889 shall come up^H5927, and his ill savour^H6709 shall come up^H5927, because he hath done^H6213 great things^H1431.

²¹Fear^H3372 not, O land^H127; be glad^H1523 and rejoice^H8055: for the LORD^H3068 will do^H6213 great things^H1431.²²Be not afraid^H3372, ye beasts^H929 of the field^H7704: for the pastures^H4999 of the wilderness^H4057 do spring^H1876, for the tree^H6086 beareth^H5375 her fruit^H6529, the fig tree^H8384 and the vine^H1612 do yield^H5414 their strength^H2428.²³Be glad^H1523 then, ye children^H1121 of Zion^H6726, and rejoice^H8055 in the LORD^H3068 your God^H430: for he hath given^H5414 you the former rain^H4175 moderately^H6666, and he will cause to come down^H3381 for you the rain^H1653, the former rain^H4175, and the latter rain^H4456 in the first^H7223 month.²⁴And the floors^H1637 shall be full^H4390 of wheat^H1250, and the fats^H3342 shall overflow^H7783 with wine^H8492 and oil^H3323.²⁵And I will restore^H7999 to you the years^H8141 that the locust^H697 hath eaten^H398, the cankerworm^H3218, and the caterpiller^H2625, and the palmerworm^H1501, my great^H1419 army^H2428 which I sent^H7971 among you.²⁶And ye shall eat^H398 in plenty^H398, and be satisfied^H7646, and praise^H1984 the name^H8034 of the LORD^H3068 your God^H430, that hath dealt^H6213 wondrously^H6381 with you: and my people^H5971 shall never^H5769 be ashamed^H954.²⁷And ye shall know^H3045 that I am in the midst^H7130 of Israel^H3478, and that I am the LORD^H3068 your God^H430, and none else: and my people^H5971 shall never^H5769 be ashamed^H954.

²⁸And it shall come to pass afterward^H310, that I will pour out^H8210 my spirit^H7307 upon all flesh^H1320; and your sons^H1121 and your daughters^H1323 shall prophesy^H5012, your old men^H2205 shall dream^H2492 dreams^H2472, your young men^H970 shall see^H7200 visions^H2384:²⁹And also upon the servants^H5650 and upon the handmaids^H8198 in those days^H3117 will I pour out^H8210 my spirit^H7307.³⁰And I will shew^H5414 wonders^H4159 in the heavens^H8064 and in the earth^H776, blood^H1818, and fire^H784, and pillars^H8490 of smoke^H6227.³¹The sun^H8121 shall be turned^H2015 into darkness^H2822, and the moon^H3394 into blood^H1818, before^H6440 the great^H1419 and the terrible^H3372 day^H3117 of the LORD^H3068 come^H935.³²And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call^H7121 on the name^H8034 of the LORD^H3068 shall be delivered^H4422: for in mount^H2022 Zion^H6726 and in Jerusalem^H3389 shall be deliverance^H6413, as the LORD^H3068 hath said^H559, and in the remnant^H8300 whom the LORD^H3068 shall call^H7121.
