Joel 2:11-32

2:11

And the LORD
<03068>

shall utter
<05414> (8804)

his voice
<06963>

before
<06440>

his army
<02428>_:

for his camp
<04264>

[is] very
<03966>

great
<07227>_:

for [he is] strong
<06099>

that executeth
<06213> (8802)

his word
<01697>_:

for the day
<03117>

of the LORD
<03068>

[is] great
<01419>

and very
<03966>

terrible
<03372> (8737)_;

and who can abide
<03557> (8686)

it?

2:12

Therefore also now, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

turn
<07725> (8798)

ye [even] to me with all your heart
<03824>_,

and with fasting
<06685>_,

and with weeping
<01065>_,

and with mourning
<04553>_:

2:13

And rend
<07167> (8798)

your heart
<03824>_,

and not your garments
<0899>_,

and turn
<07725> (8798)

unto the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_:

for he [is] gracious
<02587>

and merciful
<07349>_,

slow
<0750>

to anger
<0639>_,

and of great
<07227>

kindness
<02617>_,

and repenteth
<05162> (8737)

him of the evil
<07451>_.

2:14

Who knoweth
<03045> (8802)

[if] he will return
<07725> (8799)

and repent
<05162> (8738)_,

and leave
<07604> (8689)

a blessing
<01293>

behind
<0310>

him; [even] a meat offering
<04503>

and a drink offering
<05262>

unto the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_?

2:15

Blow
<08628> (8798)

the trumpet
<07782>

in Zion
<06726>_,

sanctify
<06942> (8761)

a fast
<06685>_,

call
<07121> (8798)

a solemn assembly
<06116>_:

2:16

Gather
<0622> (8798)

the people
<05971>_,

sanctify
<06942> (8761)

the congregation
<06951>_,

assemble
<06908> (8798)

the elders
<02205>_,

gather
<0622> (8798)

the children
<05768>_,

and those that suck
<03243> (8802)

the breasts
<07699>_:

let the bridegroom
<02860>

go forth
<03318> (8799)

of his chamber
<02315>_,

and the bride
<03618>

out of her closet
<02646>_.

2:17

Let the priests
<03548>_,

the ministers
<08334> (8764)

of the LORD
<03068>_,

weep
<01058> (8799)

between the porch
<0197>

and the altar
<04196>_,

and let them say
<0559> (8799)_,

Spare
<02347> (8798)

thy people
<05971>_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

and give
<05414> (8799)

not thine heritage
<05159>

to reproach
<02781>_,

that the heathen
<01471>

should rule over
<04910> (8800)

them: wherefore should they say
<0559> (8799)

among the people
<05971>_,

Where [is] their God
<0430>_?

{rule over: or, use a byword against}

2:18

Then will the LORD
<03068>

be jealous
<07065> (8762)

for his land
<0776>_,

and pity
<02550> (8799)

his people
<05971>_.

2:19

Yea, the LORD
<03068>

will answer
<06030> (8799)

and say
<0559> (8799)

unto his people
<05971>_,

Behold, I will send
<07971> (8802)

you corn
<01715>_,

and wine
<08492>_,

and oil
<03323>_,

and ye shall be satisfied
<07646> (8804)

therewith: and I will no more make
<05414> (8799)

you a reproach
<02781>

among the heathen
<01471>_:

2:20

But I will remove far off
<07368> (8686)

from you the northern
<06830>

[army], and will drive
<05080> (8689)

him into a land
<0776>

barren
<06723>

and desolate
<08077>_,

with his face
<06440>

toward the east
<06931>

sea
<03220>_,

and his hinder part
<05490>

toward the utmost
<0314>

sea
<03220>_,

and his stink
<0889>

shall come up
<05927> (8804)_,

and his ill savour
<06709>

shall come up
<05927> (8799)_,

because he hath done
<06213> (8800)

great things
<01431> (8689)_.

{hath...: Heb. hath magnified to do}

2:21

Fear
<03372> (8799)

not, O land
<0127>_;

be glad
<01523> (8798)

and rejoice
<08055> (8798)_:

for the LORD
<03068>

will do
<06213> (8800)

great things
<01431> (8689)_.

{will...: Heb. hath magnified to do}

2:22

Be not afraid
<03372> (8799)_,

ye beasts
<0929>

of the field
<07704>_:

for the pastures
<04999>

of the wilderness
<04057>

do spring
<01876> (8804)_,

for the tree
<06086>

beareth
<05375> (8804)

her fruit
<06529>_,

the fig tree
<08384>

and the vine
<01612>

do yield
<05414> (8804)

their strength
<02428>_.

2:23

Be glad
<01523> (8798)

then, ye children
<01121>

of Zion
<06726>_,

and rejoice
<08055> (8798)

in the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_:

for he hath given
<05414> (8804)

you the former rain
<04175>

moderately
<06666>_,

and he will cause to come down
<03381> (8686)

for you the rain
<01653>_,

the former rain
<04175>_,

and the latter rain
<04456>

in the first
<07223>

[month]. {the former rain moderately: or, a teacher of righteousness} {moderately: Heb. according to righteousness}

2:24

And the floors
<01637>

shall be full
<04390> (8804)

of wheat
<01250>_,

and the fats
<03342>

shall overflow
<07783> (8689)

with wine
<08492>

and oil
<03323>_.

2:25

And I will restore
<07999> (8765)

to you the years
<08141>

that the locust
<0697>

hath eaten
<0398> (8804)_,

the cankerworm
<03218>_,

and the caterpiller
<02625>_,

and the palmerworm
<01501>_,

my great
<01419>

army
<02428>

which I sent
<07971> (8765)

among you.

2:26

And ye shall eat
<0398> (8804)

in plenty
<0398> (8800)_,

and be satisfied
<07646> (8800)_,

and praise
<01984> (8765)

the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_,

that hath dealt
<06213> (8804)

wondrously
<06381> (8687)

with you: and my people
<05971>

shall never
<05769>

be ashamed
<0954> (8799)_.

2:27

And ye shall know
<03045> (8804)

that I [am] in the midst
<07130>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and [that] I [am] the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_,

and none else: and my people
<05971>

shall never
<05769>

be ashamed
<0954> (8799)_.

2:28

And it shall come to pass afterward
<0310>_,

[that] I will pour out
<08210> (8799)

my spirit
<07307>

upon all flesh
<01320>_;

and your sons
<01121>

and your daughters
<01323>

shall prophesy
<05012> (8738)_,

your old men
<02205>

shall dream
<02492> (8799)

dreams
<02472>_,

your young men
<0970>

shall see
<07200> (8799)

visions
<02384>_:

2:29

And also upon the servants
<05650>

and upon the handmaids
<08198>

in those days
<03117>

will I pour out
<08210> (8799)

my spirit
<07307>_.

2:30

And I will shew
<05414> (8804)

wonders
<04159>

in the heavens
<08064>

and in the earth
<0776>_,

blood
<01818>_,

and fire
<0784>_,

and pillars
<08490>

of smoke
<06227>_.

2:31

The sun
<08121>

shall be turned
<02015> (8735)

into darkness
<02822>_,

and the moon
<03394>

into blood
<01818>_,

before
<06440>

the great
<01419>

and the terrible
<03372> (8737)

day
<03117>

of the LORD
<03068>

come
<0935> (8800)_.

2:32

And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever shall call
<07121> (8799)

on the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>

shall be delivered
<04422> (8735)_:

for in mount
<02022>

Zion
<06726>

and in Jerusalem
<03389>

shall be deliverance
<06413>_,

as the LORD
<03068>

hath said
<0559> (8804)_,

and in the remnant
<08300>

whom the LORD
<03068>

shall call
<07121> (8802)_.
