Joel 2:9-11 New English Translation (NET)

9. They rush into the city;they scale its walls.They climb up into the houses;they go in through the windows like a thief.

10. The earth quakes before them;the sky reverberates.The sun and the moon grow dark; the stars refuse to shine.

11. The voice of the Lord thunders as he leads his army.Indeed, his warriors are innumerable;Surely his command is carried out! Yes, the day of the Lord is awesomeand very terrifying – who can survive it?
