 * The great day of the Lord is near,
 * It is near, and hasteth greatly,
 * Even the voice of the day of the Lord:
 * The mighty man shall cry there bitterly.
 * That day is a day of wrath,
 * A day of trouble and distress,
 * A day of wasteness and desolation,
 * A day of darkness and gloominess,
 * A day of clouds and thick darkness,
 * A day of the trumpet and alarm
 * Against the fenced cities, and against the high towers.
 * And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men,
 * Because they have sinned against the Lord:
 * And their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung.
 * Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them
 * In the day of the Lord's wrath;
 * But the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy:
 * For he shall make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwell in the land.


 * yourselves together, yea, gather together, O nation not desired;
