² But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap:

⁵ Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord:

³¹ The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord come.

¹⁸ Woe unto you that desire the day of the Lord! to what end is it for you? the day of the Lord is darkness, and not light.

²⁰ Shall not the day of the Lord be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?

⁶ Howl ye; for the day of the Lord is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.

⁹ Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.

¹³ Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the Lord of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
