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;
A day
of darkness
and of gloominess,
a day
of clouds
and of thick darkness,
as the morning
spread
upon the mountains:
a great
people
and a strong;
there hath not been
ever
the like, neither shall be any more
after
it, even to the years
of many
generations.

is as the garden

before
them, and behind
them a desolate
wilderness;
yea, and nothing shall escape
them.

The appearance
of them is as the appearance
of horses;
and as horsemen,
so shall they run.
Like the noise
of chariots
on the tops
of mountains
shall they leap,
like the noise
of a flame
of fire
that devoureth
the stubble,
as a strong
people
set in battle
array.

Before their face
the people
shall be much pained:
all faces
shall gather

They shall run
like mighty men;
they shall climb
the wall
like men
of war;
and they shall march
every one
on his ways,
and they shall not break
their ranks:

Neither shall one
thrust
another;
they shall walk
every one
in his path:
and when they fall
upon the sword,
they shall not be wounded.
They shall run to and fro
in the city;
they shall run
upon the wall,
they shall climb up
upon the houses;
they shall enter in
at the windows
like a thief.
The earth
shall quake
before
them; the heavens
shall tremble:
the sun
and the moon
shall be dark,
and the stars
shall withdraw
their shining:

And the LORD
shall utter
his voice
before
his army:
for his camp
is very
great:
for he is strong
that executeth
his word:
for the day
of the LORD
is great
and very
terrible;
and who can abide
it?
Therefore also now, saith
the LORD,
turn
ye even to me with all your heart,
and with fasting,
and with weeping,
and with mourning:
And rend
your heart,
and not your garments,
and turn
unto the LORD
your God:
for he is gracious
and merciful,
slow
to anger,
and of great
kindness,
and repenteth
him of the evil.

Spare
thy people,
O LORD,

not thine heritage

that the heathen
should rule over
them: wherefore should they say
among the people,
Where is their God?

Then will the LORD

Yea, the LORD
will answer

unto his people,
Behold, I will send
you corn,
and wine,
and oil,
and ye shall be satisfied
therewith: and I will no more make
you a reproach
among the heathen:

But I will remove far off
from you the northern
army, and will drive
him into a land
barren
and desolate,
with his face
toward the east
sea,
and his hinder part
toward the utmost
sea,
and his stink
shall come up,
and his ill savour
shall come up,
because he hath done
great things.

Be glad
then, ye children
of Zion,
and rejoice
in the LORD
your God:
for he hath given
you the former rain
moderately,
and he will cause to come down
for you the rain,
the former rain,
and the latter rain
in the first
month.
And the floors
shall be full
of wheat,
and the fats
shall overflow
with wine
and oil.
And I will restore
to you the years
that the locust
hath eaten,
the cankerworm,
and the caterpiller,
and the palmerworm,
my great
army
which I sent
among you.

And ye shall eat
in plenty,
and be satisfied,
and praise
the name
of the LORD
your God,
that hath dealt
wondrously
with you: and my people
shall never
be ashamed.
And ye shall know
that I am in the midst
of Israel,
and that I am the LORD
your God,
and none else: and my people
shall never
be ashamed.
And it shall come to pass afterward,
that I will pour out
my spirit
upon all flesh;
and your sons
and your daughters
shall prophesy,
your old men
shall dream
dreams,
your young men
shall see
visions:
And also upon the servants
and upon the handmaids
in those days
will I pour out
my spirit.
And I will shew
wonders
in the heavens
and in the earth,
blood,
and fire,
and pillars
of smoke.
The sun
shall be turned
into darkness,
and the moon
into blood,
before
the great
and the terrible
day
of the LORD
come.
And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call
on the name
of the LORD
shall be delivered:
for in mount
Zion
and in Jerusalem
shall be deliverance,
as the LORD
hath said,
and in the remnant
whom the LORD
shall call.
