1Blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain! 2A day of darkness and gloominess, 3A fire devours before them, 4The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses, 5Like the noise of chariots on the tops of the mountains do they leap, 6At their presence the peoples are in anguish. 7They run like mighty men. 8Neither does one jostle another; 9They rush on the city. 10The earth quakes before them. 11The LORD thunders his voice before his army; 12"Yet even now," says the LORD, "turn to me with all your heart, 13Tear your heart, and not your garments, 14Who knows? He may turn and relent, 15Blow the trumpet in Zion! 16Gather the people. 17Let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the altar, 18Then the LORD was jealous for his land, 19The LORD answered his people, 20But I will remove the northern army far away from you, 21Land, do not be afraid. 22Do not be afraid, you animals of the field; 23"Be glad then, you children of Zion, 24The threshing floors will be full of wheat, 25I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, 26You will have plenty to eat, and be satisfied, 27You will know that I am in the midst of Israel, 28"It will happen afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh; 29And also on the servants and on the handmaids in those days, 30I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: 31The sun will be turned into darkness, 32It will happen that whoever will call on the name of the LORD shall be saved;
