Joel 2:3-5
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
3 Fire devours in front of them,
and behind them a flame burns.
Before them the land is like the garden of Eden,
but after them a desolate wilderness,
and nothing escapes them.
4 They have the appearance of horses,
and like warhorses they charge.
5 As with the rumbling of chariots,
they leap on the tops of the mountains,
like the crackling of a flame of fire
devouring the stubble,
like a powerful army
drawn up for battle.
Joel 2:3-5

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.
