³ For ^(A)the day is near,
Even the day of the Lord is near;
It will be a day of clouds, the time of the Gentiles.

2 Blow ^(A)the ^[a]trumpet in Zion,
And ^(B)sound an alarm in My holy mountain!
Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble;
For ^(C)the day of the Lord is coming,
For it is at hand:

^11 (A)The Lord gives voice before His army,
For His camp is very great;
^(B)For strong is the One who executes His word.
For the ^(C)day of the Lord is great and very terrible;
^(D)Who can endure it?

^31 (A)The sun shall be turned into darkness,
And the moon into blood,
^(B)Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord.
