[Joel 3:5]

v.32
Blow the trumpet in Zion; sound the alarm on my holy mountain! Let all who live in the land tremble, for the day of the LORD is coming—it is near:
a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and thick night. Like the dawn spreading over the mountains, a vast and mighty army comes—nothing like it has ever been, and nothing like it will be again through all the generations to come.
Fire devours before them, and behind them flames blaze. Before them the land is like the garden of Eden; behind them lies a desolate wasteland. Nothing escapes them.
They look like horses; like cavalry they charge.
With a rumble like chariots they leap over the mountaintops, like the crackle of fire devouring stubble, like a mighty army drawn up for battle.
At the sight of them nations writhe in anguish; every face turns pale.
They charge like warriors; like soldiers they scale walls. Each keeps to his course and never swerves from his path.
They do not jostle one another; each marches straight ahead. They plunge through the weapons and are not stopped.
They storm the city, they run along the wall, they climb into the houses, they slip through the windows like thieves.
Before them the earth quakes, the heavens tremble; the sun and moon go dark, and the stars withhold their light.
The LORD thunders at the head of his army; his forces are beyond number, and mighty are those who carry out his word. Great is the day of the LORD, and terrible beyond measure—who can endure it?
Yet even now, declares the LORD, return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning.
Tear your hearts and not your garments. Return to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, and he relents from sending disaster.
Who knows? He may turn and relent and leave behind him a blessing—a grain offering and a drink offering for the LORD your God.
Blow the trumpet in Zion; consecrate a fast, call a solemn assembly.
Gather the people, consecrate the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, even the infants at the breast. Let the bridegroom come out of his room and the bride from her chamber.
Let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep between the portico and the altar. Let them say, "Spare your people, LORD. Do not make your inheritance an object of scorn, with the nations ruling over them. Why should they say among the peoples, 'Where is their God?'"
Then the LORD became jealous for his land and took pity on his people.
The LORD answered his people: "I am sending you grain, new wine, and oil, enough to satisfy you fully; never again will I make you an object of scorn among the nations.
I will drive the northern army far from you, banishing it into a parched and desolate land—its front ranks into the eastern sea, its rear into the western sea. Its stench will rise; the reek of it will go up, for it has done great harm.
Do not be afraid, land; be glad and rejoice, for the LORD has done great things.
Do not be afraid, you animals of the field, for the pastures of the wilderness are green again. The trees bear their fruit; the fig tree and the vine yield their riches.
Be glad, people of Zion, rejoice in the LORD your God, for he has given you the autumn rain in righteousness; he pours down for you abundant rain, both the autumn and the spring rains, as before.
The threshing floors will be filled with grain, and the vats will overflow with new wine and oil.
I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten—the swarming locust, the hopper, the destroyer, the cutter—my great army that I sent against you.
You will eat until you are full and satisfied, and you will praise the name of the LORD your God, who has dealt wondrously with you. Never again will my people be put to shame.
Then you will know that I am in the midst of Israel, that I am the LORD your God and there is no other. Never again will my people be put to shame.
