Joel 4:14

Context of Joel 4:14

12“Let the nations rouse themselves and go up to the valley of Jehoshaphat. For there will I sit to judge all the surrounding nations.” 13Swing the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, tread, for the winepress is full —the vats overflow— for their wickedness is great! Multitudes, multitudes, in the valley of decision! For the day of Adonai is near in the valley of decision. 15The sun and the moon become dark, the stars withdraw their brightness. 16Adonai will roar from Zion and give His voice from Jerusalem. Heaven and earth will shudder, but Adonai will be a refuge for His people, and a safe place for the children of Israel.
