Joel 3:16-21
Young's Literal Translation
16 And Jehovah from Zion doth roar, And from Jerusalem giveth forth His voice, And shaken have the heavens and earth, And Jehovah [is] a refuge to his people, And a stronghold to sons of Israel.
17 And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah your God, Dwelling in Zion, My holy mountain, And Jerusalem hath been holy, And strangers do not pass over into it again.
18 And it hath come to pass, in that day, Drop down do the mountains juice, And the hills do flow [with] milk, And all streams of Judah do go [with] water, And a fountain from the house of Jehovah goeth forth, And hath watered the valley of Shittim.
19 Egypt a desolation becometh, And Edom a desolation, a wilderness, becometh, For violence [to] sons of Judah, Whose innocent blood they shed in their land.
20 And Judah to the age doth dwell, And Jerusalem to generation and generation.
21 And I have declared their blood innocent, [That] I did not declare innocent, And Jehovah is dwelling in Zion!
Joel 3:16-21
New American Standard Bible
16 The Lord (A)roars from Zion
And (B)utters His voice from Jerusalem,
And the (C)heavens and the earth quake.
But the Lord is a (D)refuge for His people,
And a (E)stronghold for the sons of Israel.
17 Then you will (F)know that I am the Lord your God,
Dwelling on Zion, My (G)holy mountain.
So Jerusalem will be (H)holy,
And (I)strangers will no longer pass through it.
Judah Will Be Blessed
18 And on that day
The (J)mountains will drip with [a]sweet wine,
And the hills will (K)flow with milk,
And all the (L)brooks of Judah will flow with water;
And a (M)spring will go out from the house of the Lord
And water the Valley of [b]Shittim.
19 Egypt will become a wasteland,
And Edom will become a desolate wilderness,
Because of the (N)violence [c]done to the sons of Judah,
In whose land they have shed innocent blood.
20 But Judah will be (O)inhabited forever,
And Jerusalem for all generations.
21 And I will (P)avenge their blood which I have not avenged,
For the Lord dwells in Zion.
