| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Joel 1:1 | The word of the LORD that came to Joel the son of Pethuel. |
| Joel 1:2 | Hear this, ye old men, and give ear, all ye inhabitants of the land. Hath this been in your days, or even in the days of your fathers? |
| Joel 1:3 | Tell ye your children of it, and [let] your children [tell] their children, and their children another generation. |
| Joel 1:4 | That which the palmerworm hath left hath the locust eaten; and that which the locust hath left hath the cankerworm eaten; and that which the cankerworm hath left hath the caterpiller eaten. |
| Joel 1:5 | Awake, ye drunkards, and weep; and howl, all ye drinkers of wine, because of the new wine; for it is cut off from your mouth. |
| Joel 1:6 | For a nation is come up upon my land, strong, and without number, whose teeth [are] the teeth of a lion, and he hath the cheek teeth of a great lion. |
| Joel 1:7 | He hath laid my vine waste, and barked my fig tree: he hath made it clean bare, and cast [it] away; the branches thereof are made white. |
| Joel 1:8 | Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the husband of her youth. |
| Joel 1:9 | The meat offering and the drink offering is cut off from the house of the LORD; the priests, the LORD’S ministers, mourn. |
| Joel 1:10 | The field is wasted, the land mourneth; for the corn is wasted: the new wine is dried up, the oil languisheth. |
| Joel 1:11 | Be ye ashamed, O ye husbandmen; howl, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is perished. |
| Joel 1:12 | The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, [even] all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men. |
| Joel 1:13 | Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests: howl, ye ministers of the altar: come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for the meat offering and the drink offering is withholden from the house of your God. |
| Joel 1:14 | Sanctify ye a fast, call a solemn assembly, gather the elders [and] all the inhabitants of the land [into] the house of the LORD your God, and cry unto the LORD, |
| Joel 1:15 | Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD [is] at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come. |
| Joel 1:16 | Is not the meat cut off before our eyes, [yea], joy and gladness from the house of our God? |
| Joel 1:17 | The seed is rotten under their clods, the garners are laid desolate, the barns are broken down; for the corn is withered. |
| Joel 1:18 | How do the beasts groan! the herds of cattle are perplexed, because they have no pasture; yea, the flocks of sheep are made desolate. |
| Joel 1:19 | O LORD, to thee will I cry: for the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame hath burned all the trees of the field. |
| Joel 1:20 | The beasts of the field cry also unto thee: for the rivers of waters are dried up, and the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness. |
| Joel 2:1 | 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; |
| Joel 2:2a | A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: |
| Joel 2:2b | 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. |
| Joel 2:3 | 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. |
| Joel 2:4 | The appearance of them [is] as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run. |
| Joel 2:5 | 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. |
| Joel 2:6 | Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces shall gather blackness. |
| Joel 2:7 | 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: |
| Joel 2:8 | 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. |
| Joel 2:9 | 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. |
| Joel 2:10 | 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: |
| Joel 2:11 | 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? |
| Joel 2:12 | Therefore also now, saith the LORD, turn ye [even] to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: |
| Joel 2:13 | 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. |
| Joel 2:14 | 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? |
| Joel 2:15 | Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly: |
| Joel 2:16 | Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet. |
| Joel 2:17a | Let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O LORD, and give not thine heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them: |
| Joel 2:17b | wherefore should they say among the people, Where [is] their God? |
| Joel 2:18 | Then will the LORD be jealous for his land, and pity his people. |
| Joel 2:19 | Yea, the LORD will answer and say unto his people, Behold, I will send you corn, and wine, and oil, and ye shall be satisfied therewith: and I will no more make you a reproach among the heathen: |
| Joel 2:20a | But I will remove far off from you the northern [army], and will drive him into a land barren and desolate, with his face toward the east sea, and his hinder part toward the utmost sea, |
| Joel 2:20b | and his stink shall come up, and his ill savour shall come up, because he hath done great things. |
| Joel 2:21 | Fear not, O land; be glad and rejoice: for the LORD will do great things. |
| Joel 2:22 | Be not afraid, ye beasts of the field: for the pastures of the wilderness do spring, for the tree beareth her fruit, the fig tree and the vine do yield their strength. |
| Joel 2:23 | Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first [month]. |
| Joel 2:24 | And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the fats shall overflow with wine and oil. |
| Joel 2:25 | And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. |
| Joel 2:26 | And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed. |
| Joel 2:27 | And ye shall know that I [am] in the midst of Israel, and [that] I [am] the LORD your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed. |
| Joel 2:28 | And it shall come to pass afterward, [that] I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: |
| Joel 2:29 | And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit. |
| Joel 2:30 | And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. |
| Joel 2:31 | The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come. |
| Joel 2:32 | And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call. |
| Joel 3:1 | For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem, |
| Joel 3:2 | I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and [for] my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land. |
| Joel 3:3 | And they have cast lots for my people; and have given a boy for an harlot, and sold a girl for wine, that they might drink. |
| Joel 3:4 | Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all the coasts of Palestine? will ye render me a recompence? and if ye recompense me, swiftly [and] speedily will I return your recompence upon your own head; |
| Joel 3:5 | Because ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my goodly pleasant things: |
| Joel 3:6 | The children also of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold unto the Grecians, that ye might remove them far from their border. |
| Joel 3:7 | Behold, I will raise them out of the place whither ye have sold them, and will return your recompence upon your own head: |
| Joel 3:8 | And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a people far off: for the LORD hath spoken [it]. |
| Joel 3:9 | Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up: |
| Joel 3:10 | Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I [am] strong. |
| Joel 3:11 | Assemble yourselves, and come, all ye heathen, and gather yourselves together round about: thither cause thy mighty ones to come down, O LORD. |
| Joel 3:12 | Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about. |
| Joel 3:13 | Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe: come, get you down; for the press is full, the fats overflow; for their wickedness [is] great. |
| Joel 3:14 | Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD [is] near in the valley of decision. |
| Joel 3:15 | The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining. |
| Joel 3:16 | The LORD also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but the LORD [will be] the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel. |
| Joel 3:17 | So shall ye know that I [am] the LORD your God dwelling in Zion, my holy mountain: then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more. |
| Joel 3:18a | And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the mountains shall drop down new wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the rivers of Judah shall flow with waters, |
| Joel 3:18b | and a fountain shall come forth of the house of the LORD, and shall water the valley of Shittim. |
| Joel 3:19 | Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence [against] the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land. |
| Joel 3:20 | But Judah shall dwell for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation. |
| Joel 3:21 | For I will cleanse their blood [that] I have not cleansed: for the LORD dwelleth in Zion. |
