Joel 3:9-17

9Proclaim this among the nations: “Prepare for war! Wake up the mighty men, Let all the men of war draw near, Let them come up.

10Beat your plowshares into swords And your pruning hooks into spears; Let the weak say, ‘I am strong.’ ”

11Assemble and come, all you nations, And gather together all around. Cause Your mighty ones to go down there, O Lord.

12“Let the nations be wakened, and come up to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; For there I will sit to judge all the surrounding nations.

13Put in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, go down; For the winepress is full, The vats overflow— For their wickedness is great.”

14Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision.

15The sun and moon will grow dark, And the stars will diminish their brightness.

16The Lord also will roar from Zion, And utter His voice from Jerusalem; The heavens and earth will shake; But the Lord will be a shelter for His people, And the strength of the children of Israel.

17“So you shall know that I am the Lord your God, Dwelling in Zion My holy mountain. Then Jerusalem shall be holy, And no aliens shall ever pass through her again.”
