Joel 2:6 in Context — Joel 2
4 A les voir, on dirait des chevaux, Et ils courent comme des cavaliers.
5 A les entendre, on dirait un bruit de chars Sur le sommet des montagnes où ils bondissent, On dirait un pétillement de la flamme du feu, Quand elle consume le chaume. C’est comme une armée puissante Qui se prépare au combat.
6 Devant eux les peuples tremblent, Tous les visages pâlissent.
7 Ils s’élancent comme des guerriers, Ils escaladent les murs comme des gens de guerre; Chacun va son chemin, Sans s’écarter de sa route.
8 Ils ne se pressent point les uns les autres, Chacun garde son rang; Ils se précipitent au travers des traits Sans arrêter leur marche.
