dby - Joel:2:1-11

dby@Joel:2:1 @ Blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain; let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of Jehovah cometh, for it is at hand;

dby@Joel:2:2 @ a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and gross darkness, as the dawn spread upon the mountains; -- a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after them, to the years of generations and generations.

dby@Joel:2:3 @ A fire devoureth before them, and behind them a flame burneth; the land is as a garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness: yea, and nothing escapeth them.

dby@Joel:2:4 @ The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so they run.

dby@Joel:2:5 @ Like the noise of chariots, on the tops of the mountains, they leap; like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array.

dby@Joel:2:6 @ Before them the peoples are in anguish: all faces turn pale.

dby@Joel:2:7 @ They run like mighty men; they climb the wall like men of war; and they march every one on his ways, and break not their ranks.

dby@Joel:2:8 @ Neither doth one press upon another; they march every one in his path; and fall amid weapons, but are not wounded.

dby@Joel:2:9 @ They spread themselves over the city; they run upon the wall; they climb up into the houses; they enter in by the windows like a thief.

dby@Joel:2:10 @ The earth quaketh before them; the heavens tremble; the sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining.

dby@Joel:2:11 @ And Jehovah uttereth his voice before his army; for his camp is very great; for strong is he that executeth his word: for the day of Jehovah is great and very terrible; and who can bear it?
