Joel 2:9-11

Common English Bible

⁹ They rush upon the city;
    they run upon the walls.
They climb into the houses;
    they enter through the windows like thieves.
¹⁰ The earth quakes before them;
    the heavens shake.
The sun and the moon are darkened;
    the stars have stopped shining,
¹¹     because the Lord utters his voice
        at the head of his army.
How numerous are his troops!
    Mighty are those who obey his word.
The day of the Lord is great;
    it stirs up great fear—who can endure it?
