Joel:2:1-11
bes@Joel:2:1 @ Sound the trumpet in Sion, make a proclamation in my holy mountain, and let all the inhabitants of the land be confounded: for the day of the Lord is near;
bes@Joel:2:2 @ for a day of darkness and gloominess is near, a day of cloud and mist: a numerous and strong people shall be spread upon the mountains as the morning; there has not been from the (note:)Gr. age(:note) beginning one like it, and after it there shall not be again even to the years of many generations.
bes@Joel:2:3 @ Before (note:)Gr. it, sc. the people(:note) them is a consuming fire, and behind them is a flame kindled: the land before them is as a paradise of delight, and behind them a desolate plain: and there shall none Lit. to him, sc. the people of them escape.
bes@Joel:2:4 @ Their appearance is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they pursue.
bes@Joel:2:5 @ As the sound of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, and as the sound of a flame of fire devouring stubble, and as a numerous and strong people setting themselves in array for battle.
bes@Joel:2:6 @ Before them shall the people be crushed: every face shall be as the blackness of a (note:)Or, pot(:note) caldron.
bes@Joel:2:7 @ As warriors shall they run, and as men of war shall they mount on the walls; and each shall move in his right path, and they shall not turn aside from their tracks:
bes@Joel:2:8 @ and not one shall stand aloof from his brother: they shall go on weighed down with their arms, and they fall upon their weapons, yet shall they in no wise be destroyed.
bes@Joel:2:9 @ They shall seize upon the city, and run upon the walls, and go up upon the houses, and enter in through the windows as thieves.
bes@Joel:2:10 @ Before them the earth shall be confounded, and the sky shall be shaken: the sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their light.
bes@Joel:2:11 @ And the Lord shall utter his voice before his host: for his camp is very great: for the (note:)Gr. works(:note) execution of his words is mighty: for the day of the Lord is great, very glorious, and who shall be Gr. sufficient for it able to resist it?
