The Lord Sends an Army of Locusts

Priests, blow the trumpets in Zion.
    Give a warning on my holy mountain.
Let everyone who lives in the land tremble with fear.
    The day of the Lord is coming.
    It is very near.
That day will be dark and sad.
    It will be black and cloudy.
A huge army of locusts is coming.
    They will spread across the mountains
    like the sun when it rises.
There has never been an army like it.
    And there will never be another
    for all time to come.

Like fire they eat up everything in their path.
    Behind them it looks as if flames have burned the land.
In front of them the land is like the Garden of Eden.
    Behind them it is a dry and empty desert.
    Nothing escapes them.
