Joel 2:3-7 New English Translation (NET)

3. Like fire they devour everything in their path;a flame blazes behind them. The land looks like the Garden of Eden before them,but behind them there is only a desolate wilderness – for nothing escapes them!

4. They look like horses;they charge ahead like war horses.

5. They sound like chariots rumbling over mountain tops,like the crackling of blazing fire consuming stubble,like the noise of a mighty army being drawn up for battle.

6. People writhe in fear when they see them.All of their faces turn pale with fright.

7. They charge like warriors;they scale walls like soldiers.Each one proceeds on his course;they do not alter their path.
