2 a day of darkness and gloom,
a day of clouds and thick darkness!
Like blackness spread upon the mountains,
a great and powerful army comes;
their like has never been from of old,
nor will be again after them
in ages to come.(A)
3 Fire devours in front of them,
and behind them a flame burns.
Before them the land is like the garden of Eden,
but after them a desolate wilderness,
and nothing escapes them.(B)
4 They have the appearance of horses,
and like war horses they charge.(C)
5 As 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.(D)
6 Before them peoples are in anguish;
all faces grow pale.[a](E)
7 Like warriors they charge;
like soldiers they scale the wall.
Each keeps to its own course;
they do not swerve from their paths.
8 They do not jostle one another;
each keeps to its own track;
they burst through the weapons
and are not halted.
9 They leap upon the city;
they run upon the walls;
they climb up into the houses;
they enter through the windows like a thief.(F)
10 The earth quakes before them;
the heavens tremble.
The sun and the moon are darkened,
and the stars withdraw their shining.(G)
11 The 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?(H)

2 a day of darkness(A) and gloom,(B)
a day of clouds(C) and blackness.(D)
Like dawn spreading across the mountains
a large and mighty army(E) comes,
such as never was in ancient times(F)
nor ever will be in ages to come.
3 Before them fire(G) devours,
behind them a flame blazes.
Before them the land is like the garden of Eden,(H)
behind them, a desert waste(I)—
nothing escapes them.
4 They have the appearance of horses;(J)
they gallop along like cavalry.
5 With a noise like that of chariots(K)
they leap over the mountaintops,
like a crackling fire(L) consuming stubble,
like a mighty army drawn up for battle.
6 At the sight of them, nations are in anguish;(M)
every face turns pale.(N)
7 They charge like warriors;(O)
they scale walls like soldiers.
They all march in line,(P)
not swerving(Q) from their course.
8 They do not jostle each other;
each marches straight ahead.
They plunge through defenses
without breaking ranks.
9 They rush upon the city;
they run along the wall.
They climb into the houses;(R)
like thieves they enter through the windows.(S)
10 Before them the earth shakes,(T)
the heavens tremble,(U)
the sun and moon are darkened,(V)
and the stars no longer shine.(W)
11 The Lord(X) thunders(Y)
at the head of his army;(Z)
his forces are beyond number,
and mighty is the army that obeys his command.
The day of the Lord is great;(AA)
it is dreadful.
Who can endure it?(AB)

4 What the cutting locust left,
the swarming locust has eaten;
what the swarming locust left,
the hopping locust has eaten;
and what the hopping locust left,
the destroying locust has eaten.(A)
5 Wake up, you drunkards, and weep,
and wail, all you wine drinkers,
over the sweet wine,
for it is cut off from your mouth.
6 For a nation has invaded my land,
powerful and innumerable;
its teeth are lions’ teeth,
and it has the fangs of a lioness.(B)
