Joel 2:3-5
Common English Bible
3 In front of them a fire consumes;
and behind them a flame burns.
Land ahead of them is like Eden’s garden,
but they leave behind them a barren wasteland;
nothing escapes them.
4 They resemble horses,
and like warhorses they charge,
5 like the rumbling of chariots.
They leap on the mountaintops—
like the crackling of a fire’s flame,
devouring the stubble;
like a powerful army
ready for battle.
Joel 2:3-5
New International Version
3 Before them fire(A) devours,
behind them a flame blazes.
Before them the land is like the garden of Eden,(B)
behind them, a desert waste(C)—
nothing escapes them.
4 They have the appearance of horses;(D)
they gallop along like cavalry.
5 With a noise like that of chariots(E)
they leap over the mountaintops,
like a crackling fire(F) consuming stubble,
like a mighty army drawn up for battle.
