the day <03117 +yowm > of the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > [ is ] at

01 : 17 The seed <06507 +p@rudah > is rotten <05685 +< abash >
under <08478 +tachath > their clods <04053 +migraphah > , the

01 : 18 How <04100 +mah > do the beasts <00929 +b@hemah > groan
<00584 +>anach > ! the herds <05739 +<eder > of cattle <01241

01 : 19 O LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > , to thee will I cry < 07121

01 : 20 The beasts <00929 +b@hemah > of the field <07704 +sadeh

02 : 02 A day <03117 +yowm > of darkness <02822 +choshek > and
of gloominess <00653 +>aphelah > , a day <03117 +yowm > of
clouds <06051 +<anan > and of thick darkness <06205 +<araphel > ,
as the morning <07837 +shachar > spread <06566 +paras > upon
the mountains <02022 +har > : a great <07227 +rab > people
<05971 +<am > and a strong <06099 +<atsuwm > ; there hath not
been <01961 +hayah > ever <05769 +<owlam > the like <03644

02 : 03 A fire <00784 +>esh > devoureth <00398 +> akal > before
<06440 +paniym > them ; and behind <00310 +>achar > them a flame
<03852 +lehabah > burneth <03857 +lahat > : the land <00776

02 : 04 The appearance <04758 +mar>eh > of them [ is ] as the
appearance <04758 +mar>eh > of horses <05483 +cuwc > ; and as
horsemen <06571 +parash > , so <03651 +ken > shall they run
<07323 +ruwts > .



02 : 05 Like the noise <06963 +qowl > of chariots <04818
+merkabah > on <05921 +<al > the tops <07218 +ro>sh > of
mountains <02022 +har > shall they leap <07540 +raqad > , like

<00784 +>esh > that devoureth <00398 +>akal > the stubble <07179

in battle <04421 +milchamah > array <06186 +<arak > .



02 : 06 Before their face <06440 +paniym > the people < 05971

faces <06440 +paniym > shall gather <06908 +qabats > blackness
<06289 +pa>ruwr > .



02 : 07 They shall run <07323 +ruwts > like mighty < 01368
+gibbowr > men ; they shall climb <05927 +<alah > the wall
<02346 +chowmah > like men <00582 +>enowsh > of war <04421
+milchamah > ; and they shall march <03212 +yalak > every <00376

02 : 08 Neither <03808 +lo> > shall one <00376 +> iysh > thrust
<01766 +dachaq > another <00250 +>Ezrachiy > ; they shall walk
<03212 +yalak > every <01397 +geber > one <01397 +geber > in his
path <04546 +m@cillah > : and [ when ] they fall <05307 +naphal

<01214 +batsa< > .



02 : 09 They shall run <08264 +shaqaq > to and fro < 08264
+shaqaq > in the city <05892 +<iyr > ; they shall run <07323

<05927 +<alah > up upon the houses <01004 +bayith > ; they shall
enter <00935 +bow> > in at <01157 +b@<ad > the windows <02474
+challown > like a thief <01590 +gannab > .



02 : 10 The earth <00776 +>erets > shall quake <07264 +ragaz >
before <06440 +paniym > them ; the heavens <08064 +shamayim >
shall tremble <07493 +ra<ash > : the sun <08121 +shemesh > and
the moon <03394 +yareach > shall be dark <06937 +qadar > , and
the stars <03556 +kowkab > shall withdraw <00622 +> acaph > their
shining <05051 +nogahh > :



02 : 11 And the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > shall utter < 05414
+nathan > his voice <06963 +qowl > before <06440 +paniym > his
army <02428 +chayil > : for his camp <04264 +machaneh > [ is ]
very <03966 +m@<od > great <07227 +rab > : for [ he is ] strong
<06099 +<atsuwm > that executeth <06213 +<asah > his word <01697
+dabar > : for the day <03117 +yowm > of the LORD < 03068
+Y@hovah > [ is ] great <01419 +gadowl > and very < 03966 +m@<od

<03557 +kuwl > it ?



02 : 12 . Therefore <01571 +gam > also <01571 +gam > now <06258
+<attah > , saith <05002 +n@>um > the LORD < 03068 +Y@hovah > ,
turn <07725 +shuwb > ye [ even ] to me with all <03605 +kol >
your heart <03824 +lebab > , and with fasting <06685 +tsowm > ,
and with weeping <01065 +B@kiy > , and with mourning < 04553
+micepd > :



02 : 13 And rend <07167 +qara< > your heart <03824 +lebab > ,
and not your garments <00899 +beged > , and turn <07725 +shuwb >
unto the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > your God <00430 +> elohiym > :
for he [ is ] gracious <02587 +channuwn > and merciful < 07349
+rachuwm > , slow <00750 +>arek > to anger <00639 +>aph > , and
of great <07227 +rab > kindness <02617 +checed > , and repenteth
<05162 +nacham > him of the evil <07451 +ra< > .



02 : 14 Who <04310 +miy > knoweth <03045 +yada< > [ if ] he will
return <07725 +shuwb > and repent <05162 +nacham > , and leave
<07604 +sha>ar > a blessing <01293 +B@rakah > behind <00310

drink <05262 +necek > offering unto the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah >
your God <00430 +>elohiym > ?



02 : 15 Blow <08628 +taqa< > the trumpet <07782 +showphar > in
Zion <06726 +Tsiyown > , sanctify <06942 +qadash > a fast <06685

02 : 17 Let the priests <03548 +kohen > , the ministers < 08334

wherefore <04100 +mah > should they say <00559 +>amar > among
the people <05971 +<am > , Where <00346 +>ayeh > [ is ] their
God <00430 +>elohiym > ?



02 : 18 . Then will the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > be jealous

02 : 19 Yea , the LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > will answer < 06030

Behold <02005 +hen > , I will send <07971 +shalach > you corn

<00854 +>eth > : and I will no <03808 +lo> > more <05750 +<owd >
make <05414 +nathan > you a reproach <02781 +cherpah > among the
heathen <01471 +gowy > :



02 : 20 But I will remove <07368 +rachaq > far <07368 +rachaq >
off from you the northern <06830 +ts@phowniy > [ army ] , and
will drive <05080 +nadach > him into <00413 +>el > a land <00776

<03588 +kiy > he hath done <06213 +<asah > great <01431 +gadal >
things .



02 : 21 Fear <03372 +yare> > not , O land <00127 +> adamah > ; be
glad <01523 +giyl > and rejoice <08055 +samach > : for the LORD

things .



02 : 22 Be not afraid <03372 +yare> > , ye beasts < 00929

02 : 23 Be glad <01523 +giyl > then , ye children <01121 +ben >
of Zion <06726 +Tsiyown > , and rejoice <08055 +samach > in the

03 : 13 Put <07971 +shalach > ye in the sickle <04038 +maggal > ,

03 : 15 The sun <08121 +shemesh > and the moon <03394 +yareach >
shall be darkened <06937 +qadar > , and the stars <03556 +kowkab

03 : 18 . And it shall come <01961 +hayah > to pass in that day
<03117 +yowm > , [ that ] the mountains <02022 +har > shall drop
<05197 +nataph > down new wine <06071 +<aciyc > , and the hills

of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > shall flow <03212 +yalak > with
waters <04325 +mayim > , and a fountain <04599 +ma< yan > shall

03 : 19 Egypt <04714 +Mitsrayim > shall be a desolation < 08077
+sh@mamah > , and Edom <00123 +>Edom > shall be a desolate
<08077 +sh@mamah > wilderness <04057 +midbar > , for the
violence <02555 +chamac > [ against ] the children < 01121 +ben >
of Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > , because <00834 +>aher > they have
shed <08210 +shaphak > innocent <05355 +naqiy > blood <01818
+dam > in their land <00776 +>erets > .



03 : 20 But Judah <03063 +Y@huwdah > shall dwell <03427 +yashab

LORD <03068 +Y@hovah > dwelleth <07931 +shakan > in Zion <06726
