Joel 2:9 in Context — Joel 2
7 Como guerreiros correrão, como homens de guerra subirão a muralha; e cada um irá em seus caminhos, e não torcerão suas veredas.
8 Nenhum apertará ao outro; irão cada um em seu percurso; irrompem sem desfazerem suas fileiras.
9 Irão pela cidade, correrão pela muralha, subirão nas casas, entrarão pelas janelas como ladrão.
10 A terra se abala diante deles, o céu se estremece; o sol e a lua se escurecem, e as estrelas retiram seu brilho.
11 E o SENHOR levanta sua voz diante de seu exército; porque suas tropas são muito grandes; porque forte é aquele que cumpre sua palavra; porque o dia do SENHOR é grande, e muito terrível; quem poderá o suportar?
