Joel 2:9-11

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁹They leap upon the city,
they run upon the walls;
they climb up into the houses,
they enter through the windows like a thief.

¹⁰The earth quakes before them,
    the heavens tremble.
The sun and the moon are darkened,
    and the stars withdraw their shining.
¹¹The Lord utters his voice
    at the head of his army;
how vast is his host!
    Numberless are those who obey his command.
Truly the day of the Lord is great;
    terrible indeed—who can endure it?
