Joel 2:1-11 Blow ye the trumpet in Zion , and sound an alarm in my holy mountain : let all the inhabitants of the land tremble : for the day of the LORD cometh , for it is nigh at hand;

1 H8628 Blow [H8798] H7782 ye the trumpet H6726 in Zion H7321 , and sound an alarm [H8685] H6944 in my holy H2022 mountain H3427 : let all the inhabitants [H8802] H776 of the land H7264 tremble [H8799] H3117 : for the day H3068 of the LORD H935 cometh [H8804] H7138 , for it is nigh at hand;

2 H3117 A day H2822 of darkness H653 and of gloominess H3117 , a day H6051 of clouds H6205 and of thick darkness H7837 , as the morning H6566 spread [H8803] H2022 upon the mountains H7227 : a great H5971 people H6099 and a strong H1961 ; there hath not been [H8738] H5769 ever H3254 the like, neither shall be any more [H8686] H310 after H8141 it, even to the years H1755 of many H1755 generations.

3 H784 A fire H398 devoureth [H8804] H6440 before H310 them; and behind H3852 them a flame H3857 burneth [H8762] H776 : the land H1588 is as the garden H5731 of Eden H6440 before H310 them, and behind H8077 them a desolate H4057 wilderness H6413 ; yea, and nothing shall escape them.

4 H4758 The appearance H4758 of them is as the appearance H5483 of horses H6571 ; and as horsemen H7323 , so shall they run [H8799] .

5 H6963 Like the noise H4818 of chariots H7218 on the tops H2022 of mountains H7540 shall they leap [H8762] H6963 , like the noise H3851 of a flame H784 of fire H398 that devoureth [H8802] H7179 the stubble H6099 , as a strong H5971 people H4421 set in battle H6186 array [H8803] .

6 H6440 Before their face H5971 the people H2342 shall be much pained [H8799] H6440 : all faces H6908 shall gather [H8765] H6289 blackness.

7 H7323 They shall run [H8799] H1368 like mighty men H5927 ; they shall climb [H8799] H2346 the wall H582 like men H4421 of war H3212 ; and they shall march [H8799] H376 every one H1870 on his ways H5670 , and they shall not break [H8762] H734 their ranks:

8 H376 Neither shall one H1766 thrust [H8799] H251 another H3212 ; they shall walk [H8799] H1397 every one H4546 in his path H5307 : and when they fall [H8799] H7973 upon the sword H1214 , they shall not be wounded [H8799] .

9 H8264 They shall run to and fro [H8799] H5892 in the city H7323 ; they shall run [H8799] H2346 upon the wall H5927 , they shall climb up [H8799] H1004 upon the houses H935 ; they shall enter in [H8799] H2474 at the windows H1590 like a thief.

10 H776 The earth H7264 shall quake [H8804] H6440 before H8064 them; the heavens H7493 shall tremble [H8804] H8121 : the sun H3394 and the moon H6937 shall be dark [H8804] H3556 , and the stars H622 shall withdraw [H8804] H5051 their shining:

11 H3068 And the LORD H5414 shall utter [H8804] H6963 his voice H6440 before H2428 his army H4264 : for his camp H3966 is very H7227 great H6099 : for he is strong H6213 that executeth [H8802] H1697 his word H3117 : for the day H3068 of the LORD H1419 is great H3966 and very H3372 terrible [H8737] H3557 ; and who can abide [H8686] it?
