Joel 4:9-10
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
The Nations Destroyed
9 Announce this to the nations:
Proclaim a holy war!
Alert the warriors!
Let all the soldiers
report and march!(A)
10 [a]Beat your plowshares into swords,
and your pruning knives into spears;
let the weakling boast, “I am a warrior!”(B)
