The Day of the Lord
1 Blow athe trumpet in Zion,
And bsound an alarm in My holy mountain!
Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble;
For cthe day of the Lord is coming,
For it is at hand:
And bsound an alarm in My holy mountain!
Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble;
For cthe day of the Lord is coming,
For it is at hand:
2 aA day of darkness and gloominess,
A day of clouds and thick darkness,
Like the morning clouds spread over the mountains.
bA people come, great and strong,
cThe like of whom has never been;
Nor will there ever be any such after them,
Even for many successive generations.
A day of clouds and thick darkness,

bA people come, great and strong,
cThe like of whom has never been;
Nor will there ever be any such after them,
Even for many successive generations.
3 A fire devours before them,
And behind them a flame burns;
The land is like athe Garden of Eden before them,
bAnd behind them a desolate wilderness;
Surely nothing shall escape them.
And behind them a flame burns;
The land is like athe Garden of Eden before them,
bAnd behind them a desolate wilderness;
Surely nothing shall escape them.
5 aWith a noise like chariots
Over mountaintops they leap,
Like the noise of a flaming fire that devours the stubble,
Like a strong people set in battle array.
Over mountaintops they leap,
Like the noise of a flaming fire that devours the stubble,
Like a strong people set in battle array.
