Joel 2:25-27
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
25 I will repay you double
what the swarming locust has eaten,
The hopper, the consuming locust, and the cutter,
my great army I sent against you.(A)
26 You will eat until you are fully satisfied,
then you will praise the name of the Lord, your God,
Who acts so wondrously on your behalf!
My people will never again be put to shame.
27 Then you will know that I am in the midst of Israel:
I, the Lord, am your God, and there is no other;
my people will never again be put to shame.(B)
Joel 2:25-27
New International Version
25 “I will repay you for the years the locusts(A) have eaten(B)—
the great locust and the young locust,
the other locusts and the locust swarm[a]—
my great army(C) that I sent among you.
26 You will have plenty to eat, until you are full,(D)
and you will praise(E) the name of the Lord your God,
who has worked wonders(F) for you;
never again will my people be shamed.(G)
27 Then you will know(H) that I am in Israel,
that I am the Lord(I) your God,
and that there is no other;
never again will my people be shamed.(J)
