GNB Joel 3 Chapters only, NAB 4 chapters, difference due to division of
chapters.
Joel
Chapter 3
1
1 Then afterward I will pour out
my spirit upon all mankind. Your sons and daughters shall prophesy, your old
men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions;
2
Even upon the servants and the handmaids, in those days, I
will pour out my spirit.
3
And I will work wonders in the heavens and on the earth,
blood, fire, and columns of smoke;
4
The sun will be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood,
At the coming of the Day of the LORD, the great and terrible day.
5
Then everyone shall be rescued who calls on the name of the
LORD; For on Mount Zion there shall be a remnant, as the LORD has said, And in
Jerusalem survivors whom the LORD shall call.
Joel
Chapter 4
1
Yes, in those days, and at that time, when I would restore
the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,
2
1I will assemble all the
nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat, And I will enter into
judgment with them there on behalf of my people and my inheritance, Israel;
Because they have scattered them among the nations, and divided my land.
3
Over my people they have cast lots; they gave a boy for a
harlot, and sold a girl for the wine they drank.
4
Moreover, what are you to me, Tyre and Sidon, and all the
regions of Philistia? Would you take vengeance upon me by some action? But if
you do take action against me, swiftly, speedily, I will return your deed upon
your own head.
5
You took my silver and my gold, and brought my precious
treasures into your temples!
6
You sold the people of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks,
removing them far from their own country!
7
See, I will rouse them from the place into which you have
sold them, and I will return your deed upon your own head.
8
2 I will sell your sons and
your daughters to the people of Judah, who shall sell them to the Sabeans, a
nation far off. Indeed, the LORD has spoken.
9
Declare this among the nations: proclaim a war, rouse the
warriors to arms! Let all the soldiers report and march!
10
3Beat your plowshares into
swords, and your pruning hooks into spears; let the weak man say, "I am a
warrior!"
11
4 Hasten and come, all you
neighboring peoples, assemble there! (Bring down, O Lord, your warriors!)
12
Let the nations bestir themselves and come up to the Valley
of Jehoshaphat; For there I will sit in judgment upon all the neighboring
nations.
13
5 Apply the sickle, for the
harvest is ripe; Come and tread, for the wine press is full; The vats overflow,
for great is their malice.
14
Crowd upon crowd in the valley of decision; For near is the
day of the LORD in the valley of decision.
15
Sun and moon are darkened, and the stars withhold their
brightness.
16
The LORD roars from Zion, and from Jerusalem raises his
voice; The heavens and the earth quake, but the LORD is a refuge to his people,
a stronghold to the men of Israel.
17
Then shall you know that I, the LORD, am your God, dwelling on
Zion, my holy mountain; Jerusalem shall be holy, and strangers shall pass
through her no more.
18
6 And then, on that day, the
mountains shall drip new wine, and the hills shall flow with milk; And the
channels of Judah shall flow with water: A fountain shall issue from the house
of the LORD, to water the Valley of Shittim.
19
Egypt shall be a waste, and Edom a desert waste, Because of
violence done to the people of Judah, because they shed innocent blood in their
land.
20
But Judah shall abide forever, and Jerusalem for all
generations.
21
I will avenge their blood, and not leave it unpunished. The
LORD dwells in Zion.
