Joel 3:9-17

91ProclaimH7121 thisH2088 among the nationsH1471: 2PrepareH6942 a warH4421; 3rouseH5782 the mightyH1368 menH1368! Let allH3605 the soldiersH582H4421 drawH5066 nearH5066, let them comeH5927 up!104BeatH3807 your plowsharesH855 into swordsH2719 And your pruningH4211 hooksH4211 into spearsH7420; 5Let the weakH2523 sayH559, “I am a mightyH1368 manH1368.”1167HastenH5789 and comeH935, allH3605 you surroundingH5439 nationsH1471, And gatherH6908 yourselves thereH8033. BringH5181 downH5181, O LordH3068, Your 8mightyH1368 onesH1368.12Let the nationsH1471 be arousedH5782 And comeH5927 up to the 9valleyH6010 of 10JehoshaphatH3092, For thereH8033 I will sitH3427 to 11judgeH8199 AllH3605 the surroundingH5439 nationsH1471.1312PutH7971 in the sickleH4038, for the 13harvestH7105 is ripeH1310. ComeH935, 14treadH3381, for the 15wineH1660 pressH1660 is fullH4390; The vatsH3342 overflowH7783, for their 16wickednessH7463 is greatH7227.1417MultitudesH1995, multitudesH1995 in the 18valleyH6010 of 19decisionH2742! For the 20dayH3117 of the LordH3068 is nearH7138 in the valleyH6010 of 21decisionH2742.15The 22sunH8121 and moonH3394 growH6937 darkH6937 And the starsH3556 loseH622 their brightnessH5051.16The LordH3068 23roarsH7580 from ZionH6726 And 24uttersH5414 His voiceH6963 from JerusalemH3389, And the 25heavensH8064 and the earthH776 trembleH7493. But the LordH3068 is a 26refugeH4268 for His peopleH5971 And a 27strongholdH4581 to the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478.17Then you will 28knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068 your GodH430, DwellingH7931 in ZionH6726, My 29holyH6944 mountainH2022. So JerusalemH3389 will be 30holyH6944, And 31strangersH2114 will passH5674 through it noH3808 moreH5750.
