Joel 2:4-6

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁴They have the appearance of horses,
    and like war horses they charge.^(A)
⁵As with the rumbling of chariots,
    they leap on the tops of the mountains,
like the crackling of a flame of fire
    devouring the stubble,
like a powerful army
    drawn up for battle.^(B)

⁶Before them peoples are in anguish;
all faces grow pale.^[a]^(C)
