+  <chapter no='1'>
+    <verse no='1'>The word of the LORD that came to Joel the son of Pethuel.</verse>
+    <verse no='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?</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>Tell ye your children of it, and let your children tell  their children, and their children another generation.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the husband  of her youth.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>The meat offering and the drink offering is cut off from the  house of the LORD; the priests, the LORD's ministers, mourn.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>The field is wasted, the land mourneth; for the corn is  wasted: the new wine is dried up, the oil languisheth.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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,</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as  a destruction from the Almighty shall it come.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>Is not the meat cut off before our eyes, yea, joy and  gladness from the house of our God?</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>The seed is rotten under their clods, the garners are laid  desolate, the barns are broken down; for the corn is withered.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='2'>
+    <verse no='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;</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and  as horsemen, so shall they run.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces  shall gather blackness.</verse>
+    <verse no='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:</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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:</verse>
+    <verse no='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?</verse>
+    <verse no='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:</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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?</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn  assembly:</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>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: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>Then will the LORD be jealous for his land, and pity his  people.</verse>
+    <verse no='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:</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>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, and his stink  shall come up, and his ill savour shall come up, because he hath done  great things.</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>Fear not, O land; be glad and rejoice: for the LORD will do  great things.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='24'>And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the vats shall  overflow with wine and oil.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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:</verse>
+    <verse no='29'>And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those  days will I pour out my spirit.</verse>
+    <verse no='30'>And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth,  blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.</verse>
+    <verse no='31'>The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into  blood, before the great and terrible day of the LORD come.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='3'>
+    <verse no='1'>For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall  bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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;</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>Because ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have  carried into your temples my goodly pleasant things:</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>Behold, I will raise them out of the place whither ye have  sold them, and will return your recompence upon your own head:</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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:</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruninghooks into  spears: let the weak say, I am strong.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>Assemble yourselves, and come, all ye heathen, and gather  yourselves together round about: thither cause thy mighty ones to come  down, O LORD.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the  day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall  withdraw their shining.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='18'>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, and a fountain shall come  forth out of the house of the LORD, and shall water the valley of  Shittim.</verse>
+    <verse no='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.</verse>
+    <verse no='20'>But Judah shall dwell for ever, and Jerusalem from  generation to generation.</verse>
+    <verse no='21'>For I will cleanse their blood that I have not cleansed: for  the LORD dwelleth in Zion.</verse>
