14 Near is the (A)great (B)day of the Lord,
Near and coming very quickly;
Listen, the day of the Lord!
[a]In it the warrior (C)cries out bitterly.
15 A day of wrath is that day,
A day of (D)trouble and distress,
A day of destruction and desolation,
A day of (E)darkness and gloom,
A day of clouds and thick darkness,
16 A day of (F)trumpet and battle cry
Against the (G)fortified cities
And the high corner towers.
