29:002:001 Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound
an alarm in my holy
mountain:
let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for
the
day
of the lord cometh, for it is nigh at hand;
29:002:002 A day of darkness and of gloominess, a
day of clouds and of
thick
darkness, as the morning spread upon 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.
29:002:003 A fire devoureth before them; and behind
them a flame burneth:
the
land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind
them
a
desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape
them.
29:002:004 The appearance of them is as the appearance
of horses; and as
horsemen,
so shall they run.
29:002:005 Like the noise of chariots on the tops
of mountains shall they
leap,
like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the
stubble,
as a strong people set in battle array.
29:002:006 Before their face the people shall be much
pained: all faces
shall
gather blackness.
29:002:007 They shall run like mighty men; they shall
climb the wall like
men
of war; and they shall march every one on his ways,
and
they
shall not break their ranks:
29:002:008 Neither shall one thrust another; they
shall walk every one in
his
path: and when they fall upon the sword, they
shall not be
wounded.
29:002:009 They shall run to and fro in the city;
they shall run upon the
wall,
they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter
in
at
the windows like a thief.
29:002:010 The earth shall quake before them; the
heavens shall tremble:
the
sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall
withdraw
their shining:
29:002:011 And the lord shall utter his voice
before his army: for his
camp
is very great: for he is strong that executeth
his word:
for
the day of the lord is great and very terrible;
and who
can
abide it?
29:002:012 Therefore also now, saith the lord,
turn ye even to me with
all
your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and
with
mourning:
29:002:013 And rend your heart, and not your garments,
and turn unto the
lord
your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow
to anger,
and
of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.
29:002:014 Who knoweth 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?
