Joel 2:5 in Context — Joel 2
3 Delante de él consumirá fuego, tras de él abrasará llama; como el huerto de Edén será la tierra delante de él, y detrás de él [como] desierto asolado; ni tampoco habrá quien de él escape.
4 Su parecer, como parecer de caballos; y como gente de á caballo correrán.
5 Como estruendo de carros saltarán sobre las cumbres de los montes; como sonido de llama de fuego que consume hojarascas, como fuerte pueblo aparejado para la batalla.
6 Delante de él temerán los pueblos, pondránse mustios todos los semblantes.
7 Como valientes correrán, como hombres de guerra subirán la muralla; y cada cual irá en sus caminos, y no torcerán sus sendas.
