Joel 2:12--3:21

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>_:
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>_.
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>_?
Blow
<08628> (8798)
the trumpet
<07782>
in Zion
<06726>_,
sanctify
<06942> (8761)
a fast
<06685>_,
call
<07121> (8798)
a solemn assembly
<06116>_:
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>_.
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}
Then will the LORD
<03068>
be jealous
<07065> (8762)
for his land
<0776>_,
and pity
<02550> (8799)
his people
<05971>_.
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>_:
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}
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}
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>_.
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}
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>_.
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.
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)_.
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)_.
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>_:
And also upon the servants
<05650>
and upon the handmaids
<08198>
in those days
<03117>
will I pour out
<08210> (8799)
my spirit
<07307>_.
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>_.
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)_.
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)_.
For, behold, in those days
<03117>_,
and in that time
<06256>_,
when I shall bring again
<07725> (8686) (8675) <07725> (8799)
the captivity
<07622>
of Judah
<03063>
and Jerusalem
<03389>_,
I will also gather
<06908> (8765)
all nations
<01471>_,
and will bring them down
<03381> (8689)
into the valley
<06010>
of Jehoshaphat
<03092>_,
and will plead
<08199> (8738)
with them there for my people
<05971>
and [for] my heritage
<05159>
Israel
<03478>_,
whom they have scattered
<06340> (8765)
among the nations
<01471>_,
and parted
<02505> (8765)
my land
<0776>_.
And they have cast
<03032> (8804)
lots
<01486>
for my people
<05971>_;
and have given
<05414> (8799)
a boy
<03206>
for an harlot
<02181> (8802)_,
and sold
<04376> (8804)
a girl
<03207>
for wine
<03196>_,
that they might drink
<08354> (8799)_.
Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre
<06865>_,
and Zidon
<06721>_,
and all the coasts
<01552>
of Palestine
<06429>_?
will ye render
<07999> (8764)
me a recompence
<01576>_?
and if ye recompense
<01580> (8802)
me, swiftly
<07031>
[and] speedily
<04120>
will I return
<07725> (8686)
your recompence
<01576>
upon your own head
<07218>_;
Because ye have taken
<03947> (8804)
my silver
<03701>
and my gold
<02091>_,
and have carried
<0935> (8689)
into your temples
<01964>
my goodly
<02896>
pleasant things
<04261>_:
{pleasant: Heb. desirable}
The children
<01121>
also of Judah
<03063>
and the children
<01121>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
have ye sold
<04376> (8804)
unto the Grecians
<03125> <01121>_,
that ye might remove them far
<07368> (8687)
from their border
<01366>_.
{the Grecians: Heb. the sons of the Grecians}
Behold, I will raise
<05782> (8688)
them out of the place
<04725>
whither ye have sold
<04376> (8804)
them, and will return
<07725> (8689)
your recompence
<01576>
upon your own head
<07218>_:
And I will sell
<04376> (8804)
your sons
<01121>
and your daughters
<01323>
into the hand
<03027>
of the children
<01121>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and they shall sell
<04376> (8804)
them to the Sabeans
<07615>_,
to a people
<01471>
far off
<07350>_:
for the LORD
<03068>
hath spoken
<01696> (8765)
[it].
Proclaim
<07121> (8798)
ye this among the Gentiles
<01471>_;
Prepare
<06942> (8761)
war
<04421>_,
wake up
<05782> (8685)
the mighty men
<01368>_,
let all the men
<0582>
of war
<04421>
draw near
<05066> (8799)_;
let them come up
<05927> (8799)_:
{Prepare: Heb. Sanctify}
Beat
<03807> (8798)
your plowshares
<0855>
into swords
<02719>_,
and your pruninghooks
<04211>
into spears
<07420>_:
let the weak
<02523>
say
<0559> (8799)_,
I [am] strong
<01368>_.
{pruninghooks: or, scythes}
Assemble
<05789> (8798)
yourselves, and come
<0935> (8798)_,
all ye heathen
<01471>_,
and gather yourselves together
<06908> (8738)
round about
<05439>_:
thither cause thy mighty ones
<01368>
to come down
<05181> (8685)_,
O LORD
<03068>_.
{cause...: or, the LORD shall bring down}
Let the heathen
<01471>
be wakened
<05782> (8735)_,
and come up
<05927> (8799)
to the valley
<06010>
of Jehoshaphat
<03092>_:
for there will I sit
<03427> (8799)
to judge
<08199> (8800)
all the heathen
<01471>
round about
<05439>_.
Put
<07971> (8798)
ye in the sickle
<04038>_,
for the harvest
<07105>
is ripe
<01310> (8804)_:
come
<0935> (8798)_,
get you down
<03381> (8798)_;
for the press
<01660>
is full
<04390> (8804)_,
the fats
<03342>
overflow
<07783> (8689)_;
for their wickedness
<07451>
[is] great
<07227>_.
Multitudes
<01995>_,
multitudes
<01995>
in the valley
<06010>
of decision
<02742>_:
for the day
<03117>
of the LORD
<03068>
[is] near
<07138>
in the valley
<06010>
of decision
<02742>_.
{decision: or, concision, or, threshing}
The sun
<08121>
and the moon
<03394>
shall be darkened
<06937> (8804)_,
and the stars
<03556>
shall withdraw
<0622> (8804)
their shining
<05051>_.
The LORD
<03068>
also shall roar
<07580> (8799)
out of Zion
<06726>_,
and utter
<05414> (8799)
his voice
<06963>
from Jerusalem
<03389>_;
and the heavens
<08064>
and the earth
<0776>
shall shake
<07493> (8804)_:
but the LORD
<03068>
[will be] the hope
<04268>
of his people
<05971>_,
and the strength
<04581>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{hope: Heb. place of repair, or, harbour}
So shall ye know
<03045> (8804)
that I [am] the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
dwelling
<07931> (8802)
in Zion
<06726>_,
my holy
<06944>
mountain
<02022>_:
then shall Jerusalem
<03389>
be holy
<06944>_,
and there shall no strangers
<02114> (8801)
pass through
<05674> (8799)
her any more. {holy: Heb. holiness}
And it shall come to pass in that day
<03117>_,
[that] the mountains
<02022>
shall drop down
<05197> (8799)
new wine
<06071>_,
and the hills
<01389>
shall flow
<03212> (8799)
with milk
<02461>_,
and all the rivers
<0650>
of Judah
<03063>
shall flow
<03212> (8799)
with waters
<04325>_,
and a fountain
<04599>
shall come forth
<03318> (8799)
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and shall water
<08248> (8689)
the valley
<05158>
of Shittim
<07851>_.
{flow: Heb. go}
Egypt
<04714>
shall be a desolation
<08077>_,
and Edom
<0123>
shall be a desolate
<08077>
wilderness
<04057>_,
for the violence
<02555>
[against] the children
<01121>
of Judah
<03063>_,
because they have shed
<08210> (8804)
innocent
<05355>
blood
<01818>
in their land
<0776>_.
But Judah
<03063>
shall dwell
<03427> (8799)
for ever
<05769>_,
and Jerusalem
<03389>
from generation
<01755>
to generation
<01755>_.
{dwell: or, abide}
For I will cleanse
<05352> (8765)
their blood
<01818>
[that] I have not cleansed
<05352> (8765)_:
for the LORD
<03068>
dwelleth
<07931> (8802)
in Zion
<06726>_.
{for the...: or, even I the LORD that}
