Joel 2:5-7

Good News Translation

⁵ As they leap on the tops of the mountains,
    they rattle like chariots;
    they crackle like dry grass on fire.
They are lined up like a great army ready for battle.
⁶ As they approach, everyone is terrified;
    every face turns pale.
⁷ They attack like warriors;
    they climb the walls like soldiers.
They all keep marching straight ahead
    and do not change direction
