Joel 2:15-27

151BlowH8628 a trumpetH7782 in ZionH6726, 2ConsecrateH6942 a fastH6685, proclaimH7121 a solemnH6116 assemblyH6116,16GatherH622 the peopleH5971, 3sanctifyH6942 the congregationH6951, AssembleH6908 the eldersH2205, GatherH622 the childrenH5768 and the nursingH3243H7699 infantsH3243H7699. Have the 4groomH2860 comeH3318 outH3318 of his roomH2315 And the brideH3618 out of her bridalH2646 chamberH2646.17Let the priestsH3548, the Lord’sH3068 ministersH8334, WeepH1058 5betweenH996 the porchH197 and the altarH4196, And let them sayH559, “67SpareH2347 Your peopleH5971, LordH3068, And do not makeH5414 Your inheritanceH5159 a 8disgraceH2781, With the nationsH1471 jeeringH4912 at them. WhyH4100 should those among the peoplesH5971 sayH559, ‘9WhereH346 is their GodH430?’”

18Then the LordH3068 10will beH7065 11zealousH7065 for His landH776, And 12will haveH2550 13compassionH2550 for His peopleH5971.19The LordH3068 14will answerH6030 and sayH559 to His peopleH5971, “BeholdH2009, I am going to 15sendH7971 you grainH1715, newH8492 wineH8492, and oilH3323, And you will beH7646 satisfiedH7646 in full with 16them; And I will 17neverH3808 againH5750 makeH5414 you a disgraceH2781 among the nationsH1471.20But I will removeH7368 the 18northernH6830 army farH7368 from you, And I will driveH5080 it into a dryH6723 and desolateH8077 landH776, Its advanceH6440 guardH6440 into the 19easternH6931 seaH3220, And its rearH5490 guardH5490 into the 20westernH314 seaH3220. And its 21stenchH889 will ascendH5927 and its odorH6709 ofH6709 decayH6709 will comeH5927 upH5927, BecauseH3588 it has doneH6213 greatH1431 thingsH1431.”

2122Do not fearH3372, landH127; shoutH1523 forH1523 joyH1523 and rejoiceH8055, For the LordH3068 has doneH6213 23greatH1431 thingsH1431.22Do not fearH3372, animalsH929 of the fieldH7706, For the 24pasturesH4999 of the wildernessH4057 have turnedH1876 greenH1876, For the treeH6086 has producedH5375 its fruitH6529, The figH8384 treeH8384 and the vineH1612 have yieldedH5414 25in fullH2428.23So shoutH1523 forH1523 joyH1523, you 26sonsH1121 of ZionH6726, And 27rejoiceH8055 in the LordH3068 your GodH430; For He has 28givenH5414 you 29the earlyH4175 rainH4175 for your vindicationH6666. And He has broughtH3381 downH3381 for you the rainH1653, The 30earlyH4175 and 3132latterH4456 rainH4456 33as beforeH7223.24The threshingH1637 floorsH1637 will be fullH4390 of grainH1250, And the vatsH3342 will 34overflowH7783 with the newH8492 wineH8492 and oilH3323.25“Then I will compensateH7999 you for the yearsH8141 That the 35swarmingH697 36locustH697 has eatenH398, The creepingH3218 locustH3218, the strippingH2625 locustH2625, and the gnawingH1501 locustH1501-- My greatH1419 armyH2428 whichH834 I sentH7971 among you.26You will haveH398 plentyH398 toH398 37eatH398 and beH7646 satisfiedH7646, And you will 38praiseH1984 the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 your GodH430, WhoH834 has 39dealtH6213 wondrouslyH6381 with you; Then My peopleH5971 will 40neverH3808H5769 be putH954 toH954 shameH954.27So you will 41knowH3045 that I am in the midstH7130 of IsraelH3478, And that I am the LordH3068 your GodH430 And thereH369 isH369 42noH369 otherH5750; And My peopleH5971 will neverH3808H5769 be 43putH954 toH954 shameH954.
