They ·run [rush; swarm] into the city.
    They run at the wall
and climb into the houses,
    entering through windows like thieves.

10 Before them the earth shakes
    and sky trembles.
The sun and the moon become dark,
    and the stars ·stop shining [L withhold their brightness; 3:15].
11 The Lord ·shouts out orders [cries out; thunders]
    ·to [or at the head of] his army.
His ·army [encampment] is very large!
    Those who ·obey him [execute his word] are very strong!
The ·Lord’s day of judging [L day of the Lord; 1:15]
    is an ·overwhelming [awesome; great] and terrible day.
·No one can stand up against it! [L Who can endure it?]
