Joel 2:18 in Context — Joel 2
16 Reuni o povo, santificai a congregação, juntai os anciãos, reuni as crianças e os que mamam; saia o noivo de seu cômodo, e a noiva de seu quarto.
17 Os sacerdotes, trabalhadores do SENHOR, chorem entre o pórtico e o altar, e digam: Poupa a teu povo, SENHOR, e não entregues tua herança à humilhação, para que as nações a dominem. Por que entre os povos diriam: Onde está o Deus deles?
18 Então o SENHOR terá zelo por sua terra, e poupará a seu povo.
19 E o SENHOR responderá e dirá a seu povo: Eis que eu vos envio pão, suco de uva, e azeite, e deles sereis saciados; e nunca mais vos entregarei à humilhação entre as nações.
20 E afastarei de vós o [exército] do norte, e o lançarei na terra seca e deserta; sua frente será para o mar oriental, e sua retaguarda para o mar ocidental, e exalará seu mau cheiro; subirá sua podridão, porque fez grandes coisas.
