LORD
cometh
, for it is nigh
at hand ;
Blow you
the trumpet in Zion, And sound an alarm in my holy mountain !
Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble ,
For the day of Yahweh
comes
, For it is close
at hand :

gloominess, a day of clouds and of
thick darkness ,

the mountains :
a great people
and a
strong; there hath
not
been ever
the like, neither shall
be any more after it
, even to the years of many generations.

shall
escape
them.

they run.

enter in at the windows like a
thief
.

be
dark
, and the stars shall
withdraw their shining :

before them .

the
LORD
shall
utter

and who can abide
it?

thunders
his voice before his army ;

Therefore
also
now, saith
the
LORD
, turn ye
even
to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning :
"Yet
even
now, "
says
Yahweh
, "
turn to me with all your heart, And with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning ."

rend
your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto

great
kindness, and repenteth
him
of
the
evil
.

your heart, and not your garments, And turn to

if
he will
return
and repent
, and leave a blessing behind him ;
even a meat
offering and a drink offering unto
the
LORD
your God ?
