[1]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; |
| [2]A dayH3117 of darknessH2822 and of gloominessH653, a dayH3117 of cloudsH6051 and of thick darknessH6205, as the morningH7837 spreadH6566[H8803] upon the mountainsH2022: a greatH7227 peopleH5971 and a strongH6099; there hath not beenH1961[H8738] everH5769 the like, neither shall be any moreH3254[H8686] afterH310 it, even to the yearsH8141 of manyH1755 generationsH1755. |
[2]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. |
| [3]A fireH784 devourethH398[H8804] beforeH6440 them; and behindH310 them a flameH3852 burnethH3857[H8762]: the landH776 is as the gardenH1588 of EdenH5731 beforeH6440 them, and behindH310 them a desolateH8077 wildernessH4057; yea, and nothing shall escape themH6413. |
[3]A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them. |

[4]The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run. |
| [5]Like the noiseH6963 of chariotsH4818 on the topsH7218 of mountainsH2022 shall they leapH7540[H8762], like the noiseH6963 of a flameH3851 of fireH784 that devourethH398[H8802] the stubbleH7179, as a strongH6099 peopleH5971 set in battleH4421 arrayH6186.[H8803] |
[5]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. |
| [6]Before their faceH6440 the peopleH5971 shall be much painedH2342[H8799]: all facesH6440 shall gatherH6908[H8765] blacknessH6289. |
[6]Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces shall gather blackness. |
| [7]They shall runH7323[H8799] like mighty menH1368; they shall climbH5927[H8799] the wallH2346 like menH582 of warH4421; and they shall marchH3212[H8799] every oneH376 on his waysH1870, and they shall not breakH5670[H8762] their ranksH734: |
[7]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: |
| [8]Neither shall oneH376 thrustH1766[H8799] anotherH251; they shall walkH3212[H8799] every oneH1397 in his pathH4546: and when they fallH5307[H8799] upon the swordH7973, they shall not be woundedH1214.[H8799] |
[8]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. |
| [9]They shall run to and froH8264[H8799] in the cityH5892; they shall runH7323[H8799] upon the wallH2346, they shall climb upH5927[H8799] upon the housesH1004; they shall enter inH935[H8799] at the windowsH2474 like a thiefH1590. |
[9]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. |
| [10]The earthH776 shall quakeH7264[H8804] beforeH6440 them; the heavensH8064 shall trembleH7493[H8804]: the sunH8121 and the moonH3394 shall be darkH6937[H8804], and the starsH3556 shall withdrawH622[H8804] their shiningH5051: |
[10]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: |
| [11]And the LORDH3068 shall utterH5414[H8804] his voiceH6963 beforeH6440 his armyH2428: for his campH4264 is veryH3966 greatH7227: for he is strongH6099 that executethH6213[H8802] his wordH1697: for the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is greatH1419 and veryH3966 terribleH3372[H8737]; and who can abideH3557 itH8686? |
[11]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? |
| [12]Therefore also now, saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068, turnH7725[H8798] ye even to me with all your heartH3824, and with fastingH6685, and with weepingH1065, and with mourningH4553: |
[12]Therefore also now, saith the LORD, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: |
| [13]And rendH7167[H8798] your heartH3824, and not your garmentsH899, and turnH7725[H8798] unto the LORDH3068 your GodH430: for he is graciousH2587 and mercifulH7349, slowH750 to angerH639, and of greatH7227 kindnessH2617, and repentethH5162[H8737] him of the evilH7451. |
[13]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. |
| [14]Who knowethH3045[H8802] if he will returnH7725[H8799] and repentH5162[H8738], and leaveH7604[H8689] a blessingH1293 behindH310 him; even a meat offeringH4503 and a drink offeringH5262 unto the LORDH3068 your GodH430? |
[14]Who knoweth if he will return and repent, and leave a blessing behind him; even a meat offering and a drink offering unto the LORD your God? |
| [15]BlowH8628[H8798] the trumpetH7782 in ZionH6726, sanctifyH6942[H8761] a fastH6685, callH7121[H8798] a solemn assemblyH6116: |
[15]Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly: |
| [16]GatherH622[H8798] the peopleH5971, sanctifyH6942[H8761] the congregationH6951, assembleH6908[H8798] the eldersH2205, gatherH622[H8798] the childrenH5768, and those that suckH3243[H8802] the breastsH7699: let the bridegroomH2860 go forthH3318[H8799] of his chamberH2315, and the brideH3618 out of her closetH2646. |
[16]Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet. |
| [17]Let the priestsH3548, the ministersH8334[H8764] of the LORDH3068, weepH1058[H8799] between the porchH197 and the altarH4196, and let them sayH559[H8799], SpareH2347[H8798] thy peopleH5971, O LORDH3068, and giveH5414[H8799] not thine heritageH5159 to reproachH2781, that the heathenH1471 should rule overH4910[H8800] them: wherefore should they sayH559[H8799] among the peopleH5971, Where is their GodH430? |
[17]Let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O LORD, and give not thine heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God? |
| [18]Then will the LORDH3068 be jealousH7065[H8762] for his landH776, and pityH2550[H8799] his peopleH5971. |
[18]Then will the LORD be jealous for his land, and pity his people. |
| [19]Yea, the LORDH3068 will answerH6030[H8799] and sayH559[H8799] unto his peopleH5971, Behold, I will sendH7971[H8802] you cornH1715, and wineH8492, and oilH3323, and ye shall be satisfiedH7646[H8804] therewith: and I will no more makeH5414[H8799] you a reproachH2781 among the heathenH1471: |
[19]Yea, the LORD will answer and say 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: |
| [20]But I will remove far offH7368[H8686] from you the northernH6830 army, and will driveH5080[H8689] him into a landH776 barrenH6723 and desolateH8077, with his faceH6440 toward the eastH6931 seaH3220, and his hinder partH5490 toward the utmostH314 seaH3220, and his stinkH889 shall come upH5927[H8804], and his ill savourH6709 shall come upH5927[H8799], because he hath doneH6213[H8800] great thingsH1431.[H8689] |
[20]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. |
| [21]FearH3372[H8799] not, O landH127; be gladH1523[H8798] and rejoiceH8055[H8798]: for the LORDH3068 will doH6213[H8800] great thingsH1431.[H8689] |
[21]Fear not, O land; be glad and rejoice: for the LORD will do great things. |
| [22]Be not afraidH3372[H8799], ye beastsH929 of the fieldH7704: for the pasturesH4999 of the wildernessH4057 do springH1876[H8804], for the treeH6086 bearethH5375[H8804] her fruitH6529, the fig treeH8384 and the vineH1612 do yieldH5414[H8804] their strengthH2428. |
