2:29 Even on male and female servants
I will pour out my Spirit in those days.
3:1 (4:1)
I will return the exiles
2:32 It will so happen that
everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be delivered.
For on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem
just as the Lord has promised;
the remnant
2:20 I will remove the one from the north
I will drive him out to a dry and desolate place.
Those in front will be driven eastward into the Dead Sea,
and those in back westward into the Mediterranean Sea.
His stench will rise up as a foul smell.”
Indeed, the Lord
1:9 No one brings grain offerings or drink offerings
to the temple
So the priests, those who serve the Lord, are in mourning.
2:11 The voice of the Lord thunders
Indeed, his warriors
Surely his command is carried out!
Yes, the day of the Lord is awesome
and very terrifying – who can survive
2:16 Gather the people;
sanctify an assembly!
Gather the elders;
gather the children and the nursing infants.
Let the bridegroom come out from his bedroom
and the bride from her private quarters.
1:6 For a nation
There are so many of them they are too numerous to count.
Their teeth are like those
they tear apart their prey like a lioness.
2:17 Let the priests, those who serve the Lord, weep
from the vestibule all the way back to the altar.
Let them say, “Have pity, O Lord, on your people;
please do not turn over your inheritance to be mocked,
to become a proverb
Why should it be said
“Where is their God?”
