Joe 01:01 ¶ The word <01697> of the LORD <03068> that came to

Joel <03100> the son <01121> of Pethuel <06602>.

Joe 01:02 Hear <08085> (8798) this, ye old men < 02205>, and
give ear <0238> (8685), all ye inhabitants <03427> (8802) of the
land <0776>. Hath this been in your days <03117>, or even <0518>
in the days <03117> of your fathers <01>?

Joe 01:03 Tell <05608> (8761) ye your children < 01121> of it,
and let your children <01121> tell their children < 01121>, and
their children <01121> another <0312> generation < 01755>.

Joe 01:04 That which the palmerworm <01501> hath left < 03499>
hath the locust <0697> eaten <0398> (8804); and that which the
locust <0697> hath left <03499> hath the cankerworm <03218>
eaten <0398> (8804); and that which the cankerworm < 03218> hath
left <03499> hath the caterpiller <02625> eaten < 0398> (8804).

Joe 01:05 Awake <06974> (8685), ye drunkards <07910>, and weep
<01058> (8798); and howl <03213> (8685), all ye drinkers <08354>
(8802) of wine <03196>, because of the new wine < 06071>; for it
is cut off <03772> (8738) from your mouth <06310>.

Joe 01:06 For a nation <01471> is come up <05927> (8804) upon
my land <0776>, strong <06099>, and without number <04557>,
whose teeth <08127> are the teeth <08127> of a lion <0738>, and
he hath the cheek teeth <04973> of a great lion < 03833>.

Joe 01:07 He hath laid <07760> (8804) my vine <01612> waste
<08047>, and barked <07111> my fig tree <08384>: he hath made it
clean <02834> (8800) bare <02834> (8804), and cast it away
<07993> (8689); the branches <08299> thereof are made white
<03835> (8689).

Joe 01:08 ¶ Lament <0421> (8798) like a virgin <01330> girded
<02296> (8803) with sackcloth <08242> for the husband <01167> of
her youth <05271>.

Joe 01:09 The meat offering <04503> and the drink offering
<05262> is cut off <03772> (8717) from the house < 01004> of the
LORD <03068>; the priests <03548>, the LORD’S < 03068> ministers
<08334> (8764), mourn <056> (8804).

Joe 01:10 The field <07704> is wasted <07703> (8795), the land
<0127> mourneth <056> (8804); for the corn < 01715> is wasted
<07703> (8795): the new wine <08492> is dried up < 03001> (8689),
the oil <03323> languisheth <0535> (8797).

Joe 01:11 Be ye ashamed <03001> (8685), O ye husbandmen <0406>;
howl <03213> (8685), O ye vinedressers <03755>, for the wheat
<02406> and for the barley <08184>; because the harvest <07105>
of the field <07704> is perished <06> (8804).

Joe 01:12 The vine <01612> is dried up <03001> (8689), and the
fig tree <08384> languisheth <0535> (8797); the pomegranate
<07416> tree, the palm tree <08558> also, and the apple tree
<08598>, even all the trees <06086> of the field < 07704>, are
withered <03001> (8804): because joy <08342> is withered away
<03001> (8689) from the sons <01121> of men < 0120>.

Joe 01:13 Gird <02296> (8798) yourselves, and lament < 05594>
(8798), ye priests <03548>: howl <03213> (8685), ye ministers
<08334> (8764) of the altar <04196>: come <0935> (8798), lie all
night <03885> (8798) in sackcloth <08242>, ye ministers <08334>
(8764) of my God <0430>: for the meat offering <04503> and the
drink offering <05262> is withholden <04513> (8738) from the
house <01004> of your God <0430>.

Joe 01:14 ¶ Sanctify <06942> (8761) ye a fast <06685>, call
<07121> (8798) a solemn assembly <06116>, gather < 0622> (8798)
the elders <02205> and all the inhabitants <03427> (8802) of the
land <0776> into the house <01004> of the LORD < 03068> your God
<0430>, and cry <02199> (8798) unto the LORD < 03068>,

Joe 01:15 Alas <0162> for the day <03117>! for the day <03117>
of the LORD <03068> is at hand <07138>, and as a destruction
<07701> from the Almighty <07706> shall it come < 0935> (8799).

Joe 01:16 Is not the meat <0400> cut off <03772> (8738) before
our eyes <05869>, yea, joy <08057> and gladness < 01524> from the
house <01004> of our God <0430>?

Joe 01:17 The seed <06507> is rotten <05685> (8804) under their
clods <04053>, the garners <0214> are laid desolate <08074>
(8738), the barns <04460> are broken down <02040> (8738); for
the corn <01715> is withered <03001> (8689).

Joe 01:18 How do the beasts <0929> groan <0584> (8737)! the
herds <05739> of cattle <01241> are perplexed < 0943> (8738),
because they have no pasture <04829>; yea, the flocks < 05739> of
sheep <06629> are made desolate <0816> (8738).

Joe 01:19 O LORD <03068>, to thee will I cry <07121> (8799):
for the fire <0784> hath devoured <0398> (8804) the pastures
<04999> of the wilderness <04057>, and the flame < 03852> hath
burned <03857> (8765) all the trees <06086> of the field <07704>.

Joe 01:20 The beasts <0929> of the field <07704> cry <06165>
(8799) also unto thee: for the rivers <0650> of waters < 04325>
are dried up <03001> (8804), and the fire <0784> hath devoured
<0398> (8804) the pastures <04999> of the wilderness <04057>.

Joe 02:01 ¶ Blow <08628> (8798) ye the trumpet <07782> in Zion
<06726>, and sound an alarm <07321> (8685) in my holy <06944>
mountain <02022>: let all the inhabitants <03427> (8802) of the
land <0776> tremble <07264> (8799): for the day < 03117> of the
LORD <03068> cometh <0935> (8804), for it is nigh at hand
<07138>;

Joe 02:02 A day <03117> of darkness <02822> and of gloominess
<0653>, a day <03117> of clouds <06051> and of thick darkness
<06205>, as the morning <07837> spread <06566> (8803) upon the
mountains <02022>: a great <07227> people < 05971> and a strong
<06099>; there hath not been <01961> (8738) ever < 05769> the
like, neither shall be any more <03254> (8686) after < 0310> it,
even to the years <08141> of many <01755> generations <01755>.

Joe 02:03 A fire <0784> devoureth <0398> (8804) before <06440>
them; and behind <0310> them a flame <03852> burneth <03857>
(8762): the land <0776> is as the garden <01588> of Eden <05731>
before <06440> them, and behind <0310> them a desolate <08077>
wilderness <04057>; yea, and nothing shall escape < 06413> them.

Joe 02:04 The appearance <04758> of them is as the appearance
<04758> of horses <05483>; and as horsemen < 06571>, so shall
they run <07323> (8799).

Joe 02:05 Like the noise <06963> of chariots <04818> on the
tops <07218> of mountains <02022> shall they leap < 07540> (8762),
like the noise <06963> of a flame <03851> of fire <0784> that
devoureth <0398> (8802) the stubble <07179>, as a strong <06099>
people <05971> set in battle <04421> array < 06186> (8803).

Joe 02:06 Before their face <06440> the people < 05971> shall be
much pained <02342> (8799): all faces <06440> shall gather
<06908> (8765) blackness <06289>.

Joe 02:07 They shall run <07323> (8799) like mighty men <01368>;
they shall climb <05927> (8799) the wall <02346> like men
<0582> of war <04421>; and they shall march < 03212> (8799) every
one <0376> on his ways <01870>, and they shall not break <05670>
(8762) their ranks <0734>:

Joe 02:08 Neither shall one <0376> thrust <01766> (8799)
another <0251>; they shall walk <03212> (8799) every one <01397>
in his path <04546>: and when they fall <05307> (8799) upon the
sword <07973>, they shall not be wounded <01214> (8799).

Joe 02:09 They shall run to and fro <08264> (8799) in the city
<05892>; they shall run <07323> (8799) upon the wall <02346>,
they shall climb up <05927> (8799) upon the houses < 01004>; they
shall enter in <0935> (8799) at the windows <02474> like a thief
<01590>.

Joe 02:10 The earth <0776> shall quake <07264> (8804) before
<06440> them; the heavens <08064> shall tremble < 07493> (8804):
the sun <08121> and the moon <03394> shall be dark <06937>
(8804), and the stars <03556> shall withdraw <0622> (8804) their
shining <05051>:

Joe 02:11 And the LORD <03068> shall utter <05414> (8804) his
voice <06963> before <06440> his army <02428>: for his camp
<04264> is very <03966> great <07227>: for he is strong <06099>
that executeth <06213> (8802) his word <01697>: for the day
<03117> of the LORD <03068> is great <01419> and very <03966>
terrible <03372> (8737); and who can abide <03557> (8686) it?

Joe 02:12 ¶ Therefore also now, saith <05002> (8803) the LORD
<03068>, turn <07725> (8798) ye even to me with all your heart
<03824>, and with fasting <06685>, and with weeping <01065>, and
with mourning <04553>:

Joe 02:13 And rend <07167> (8798) your heart <03824>, and not
your garments <0899>, and turn <07725> (8798) unto the LORD
<03068> your God <0430>: for he is gracious < 02587> and merciful
<07349>, slow <0750> to anger <0639>, and of great <07227>
kindness <02617>, and repenteth <05162> (8737) him of the evil
<07451>.

Joe 02:14 Who knoweth <03045> (8802) if he will return < 07725>
(8799) and repent <05162> (8738), and leave <07604> (8689) a
blessing <01293> behind <0310> him; even a meat offering <04503>
and a drink offering <05262> unto the LORD <03068> your God
<0430>?

Joe 02:15 Blow <08628> (8798) the trumpet <07782> in Zion
<06726>, sanctify <06942> (8761) a fast <06685>, call <07121>
(8798) a solemn assembly <06116>:

Joe 02:16 Gather <0622> (8798) the people <05971>, sanctify
<06942> (8761) the congregation <06951>, assemble < 06908> (8798)
the elders <02205>, gather <0622> (8798) the children <05768>,
and those that suck <03243> (8802) the breasts <07699> : let the
bridegroom <02860> go forth <03318> (8799) of his chamber
<02315>, and the bride <03618> out of her closet < 02646>.

Joe 02:17 Let the priests <03548>, the ministers < 08334> (8764)
of the LORD <03068>, weep <01058> (8799) between the porch
<0197> and the altar <04196>, and let them say < 0559> (8799),
Spare <02347> (8798) thy people <05971>, O LORD < 03068>, and
give <05414> (8799) not thine heritage <05159> to reproach
<02781>, that the heathen <01471> should rule over <04910>
(8800) them: wherefore should they say <0559> (8799) among the
people <05971>, Where is their God <0430>?

Joe 02:18 ¶ Then will the LORD <03068> be jealous < 07065> (8762)
for his land <0776>, and pity <02550> (8799) his people <05971>.

Joe 02:19 Yea, the LORD <03068> will answer <06030> (8799) and
say <0559> (8799) unto his people <05971>, Behold, I will send
<07971> (8802) you corn <01715>, and wine < 08492>, and oil
<03323>, and ye shall be satisfied <07646> (8804) therewith: and
I will no more make <05414> (8799) you a reproach < 02781> among
the heathen <01471>:

Joe 02:20 But I will remove far off <07368> (8686) from you the
northern <06830> army, and will drive <05080> (8689) him into a
land <0776> barren <06723> and desolate <08077>, with his face
<06440> toward the east <06931> sea <03220>, and his hinder part
<05490> toward the utmost <0314> sea <03220>, and his stink
<0889> shall come up <05927> (8804), and his ill savour <06709>
shall come up <05927> (8799), because he hath done < 06213>
(8800) great things <01431> (8689).

Joe 02:21 Fear <03372> (8799) not, O land <0127>; be glad
<01523> (8798) and rejoice <08055> (8798): for the LORD <03068>
will do <06213> (8800) great things <01431> (8689).

Joe 02:22 Be not afraid <03372> (8799), ye beasts < 0929> of the
field <07704>: for the pastures <04999> of the wilderness
<04057> do spring <01876> (8804), for the tree < 06086> beareth
<05375> (8804) her fruit <06529>, the fig tree < 08384> and the
vine <01612> do yield <05414> (8804) their strength <02428>.

Joe 02:23 Be glad <01523> (8798) then, ye children < 01121> of
Zion <06726>, and rejoice <08055> (8798) in the LORD <03068>
your God <0430>: for he hath given <05414> (8804) you the former
rain <04175> moderately <06666>, and he will cause to come down
<03381> (8686) for you the rain <01653>, the former rain <04175>,
and the latter rain <04456> in the first <07223> month.

Joe 02:24 And the floors <01637> shall be full < 04390> (8804)
of wheat <01250>, and the fats <03342> shall overflow <07783>
(8689) with wine <08492> and oil <03323>.

Joe 02:25 And I will restore <07999> (8765) to you the years
<08141> that the locust <0697> hath eaten <0398> (8804), the
cankerworm <03218>, and the caterpiller <02625>, and the
palmerworm <01501>, my great <01419> army < 02428> which I sent
<07971> (8765) among you.

Joe 02:26 And ye shall eat <0398> (8804) in plenty < 0398>
(8800), and be satisfied <07646> (8800), and praise < 01984>
(8765) the name <08034> of the LORD <03068> your God <0430>,
that hath dealt <06213> (8804) wondrously <06381> (8687) with
you: and my people <05971> shall never <05769> be ashamed <0954>
(8799).

Joe 02:27 And ye shall know <03045> (8804) that I am in the
midst <07130> of Israel <03478>, and that I am the LORD <03068>
your God <0430>, and none else: and my people <05971> shall
never <05769> be ashamed <0954> (8799).

Joe 02:28 ¶ And it shall come to pass afterward <0310>, that I
will pour out <08210> (8799) my spirit <07307> upon all flesh
<01320>; and your sons <01121> and your daughters < 01323> shall
prophesy <05012> (8738), your old men <02205> shall dream
<02492> (8799) dreams <02472>, your young men < 0970> shall see
<07200> (8799) visions <02384>:

Joe 02:29 And also upon the servants <05650> and upon the
handmaids <08198> in those days <03117> will I pour out <08210>
(8799) my spirit <07307>.

Joe 02:30 And I will shew <05414> (8804) wonders < 04159> in the
heavens <08064> and in the earth <0776>, blood < 01818>, and fire
<0784>, and pillars <08490> of smoke <06227>.

Joe 02:31 The sun <08121> shall be turned <02015> (8735) into
darkness <02822>, and the moon <03394> into blood < 01818>,
before <06440> the great <01419> and the terrible < 03372> (8737)
day <03117> of the LORD <03068> come <0935> (8800).

Joe 02:32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call
<07121> (8799) on the name <08034> of the LORD < 03068> shall be
delivered <04422> (8735): for in mount <02022> Zion <06726> and
in Jerusalem <03389> shall be deliverance <06413>, as the LORD
<03068> hath said <0559> (8804), and in the remnant <08300> whom
the LORD <03068> shall call <07121> (8802).

Joe 03:01 ¶ For, behold, in those days <03117>, and in that time
<06256>, when I shall bring again <07725> (8686) (8675) <07725>
(8799) the captivity <07622> of Judah <03063> and Jerusalem
<03389>,

Joe 03:02 I will also gather <06908> (8765) all nations <01471>,
and will bring them down <03381> (8689) into the valley <06010>
of Jehoshaphat <03092>, and will plead <08199> (8738) with them
there for my people <05971> and for my heritage < 05159> Israel
<03478>, whom they have scattered <06340> (8765) among the
nations <01471>, and parted <02505> (8765) my land <0776>.

Joe 03:03 And they have cast <03032> (8804) lots < 01486> for my
people <05971>; and have given <05414> (8799) a boy <03206> for
an harlot <02181> (8802), and sold <04376> (8804) a girl <03207>
for wine <03196>, that they might drink <08354> (8799).

Joe 03:04 Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre < 06865>,
and Zidon <06721>, and all the coasts <01552> of Palestine
<06429>? will ye render <07999> (8764) me a recompence <01576>?
and if ye recompense <01580> (8802) me, swiftly < 07031> and
speedily <04120> will I return <07725> (8686) your recompence
<01576> upon your own head <07218>;

Joe 03:05 Because ye have taken <03947> (8804) my silver
<03701> and my gold <02091>, and have carried < 0935> (8689) into
your temples <01964> my goodly <02896> pleasant things <04261>:

Joe 03:06 The children <01121> also of Judah <03063> and the
children <01121> of Jerusalem <03389> have ye sold <04376>
(8804) unto the Grecians <03125> <01121>, that ye might remove
them far <07368> (8687) from their border <01366>.

Joe 03:07 Behold, I will raise <05782> (8688) them out of the
place <04725> whither ye have sold <04376> (8804) them, and will
return <07725> (8689) your recompence <01576> upon your own head
<07218>:

Joe 03:08 And I will sell <04376> (8804) your sons < 01121> and
your daughters <01323> into the hand <03027> of the children
<01121> of Judah <03063>, and they shall sell < 04376> (8804)
them to the Sabeans <07615>, to a people <01471> far off <07350>:
for the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696> (8765) it.

Joe 03:09 ¶ Proclaim <07121> (8798) ye this among the Gentiles
<01471>; Prepare <06942> (8761) war <04421>, wake up <05782>
(8685) the mighty men <01368>, let all the men <0582> of war
<04421> draw near <05066> (8799); let them come up <05927>
(8799):

Joe 03:10 Beat <03807> (8798) your plowshares <0855> into
swords <02719>, and your pruninghooks <04211> into spears
<07420>: let the weak <02523> say <0559> (8799), I am strong
<01368>.

Joe 03:11 Assemble <05789> (8798) yourselves, and come < 0935>
(8798), all ye heathen <01471>, and gather yourselves together
<06908> (8738) round about <05439>: thither cause thy mighty
ones <01368> to come down <05181> (8685), O LORD < 03068>.

Joe 03:12 Let the heathen <01471> be wakened <05782> (8735),
and come up <05927> (8799) to the valley <06010> of Jehoshaphat
<03092>: for there will I sit <03427> (8799) to judge <08199>
(8800) all the heathen <01471> round about <05439>.

Joe 03:13 Put <07971> (8798) ye in the sickle <04038> , for the
harvest <07105> is ripe <01310> (8804): come < 0935> (8798), get
you down <03381> (8798); for the press <01660> is full <04390>
(8804), the fats <03342> overflow <07783> (8689); for their
wickedness <07451> is great <07227>.

Joe 03:14 Multitudes <01995>, multitudes <01995> in the valley
<06010> of decision <02742>: for the day <03117> of the LORD
<03068> is near <07138> in the valley <06010> of decision
<02742>.

Joe 03:15 The sun <08121> and the moon <03394> shall be
darkened <06937> (8804), and the stars <03556> shall withdraw
<0622> (8804) their shining <05051>.

Joe 03:16 The LORD <03068> also shall roar <07580> (8799) out
of Zion <06726>, and utter <05414> (8799) his voice <06963> from
Jerusalem <03389>; and the heavens <08064> and the earth <0776>
shall shake <07493> (8804): but the LORD <03068> will be the
hope <04268> of his people <05971>, and the strength <04581> of
the children <01121> of Israel <03478>.

Joe 03:17 So shall ye know <03045> (8804) that I am the LORD
<03068> your God <0430> dwelling <07931> (8802) in Zion <06726>,
my holy <06944> mountain <02022>: then shall Jerusalem <03389>
be holy <06944>, and there shall no strangers <02114> (8801)
pass through <05674> (8799) her any more.

Joe 03:18 ¶ And it shall come to pass in that day <03117>, that
the mountains <02022> shall drop down <05197> (8799) new wine
<06071>, and the hills <01389> shall flow < 03212> (8799) with
milk <02461>, and all the rivers <0650> of Judah < 03063> shall
flow <03212> (8799) with waters <04325>, and a fountain <04599>
shall come forth <03318> (8799) of the house <01004> of the LORD
<03068>, and shall water <08248> (8689) the valley <05158> of
Shittim <07851>.

Joe 03:19 Egypt <04714> shall be a desolation <08077> , and Edom
<0123> shall be a desolate <08077> wilderness < 04057>, for the
violence <02555> against the children <01121> of Judah <03063>,
because they have shed <08210> (8804) innocent <05355> blood
<01818> in their land <0776>.

Joe 03:20 But Judah <03063> shall dwell <03427> (8799) for ever
<05769>, and Jerusalem <03389> from generation < 01755> to
generation <01755>.

Joe 03:21 For I will cleanse <05352> (8765) their blood <01818>
that I have not cleansed <05352> (8765): for the LORD < 03068>
dwelleth <07931> (8802) in Zion <06726>.
