Joel 3:16-18
Amplified Bible
16
The Lord thunders and roars from Zion
And utters His voice from Jerusalem [in judgment of His enemies],
And the heavens and the earth tremble and shudder;
But the Lord is a refuge for His people
And a stronghold [of protection] to the children of Israel.(A)
17
Then you will know and understand fully that I am the Lord your God,
Dwelling in Zion, My holy mountain.
Then Jerusalem will be holy,
And strangers [who do not belong] will no longer pass through it.
Judah Will Be Blessed
18
And in that day
The mountains will drip with sweet wine
And the hills will flow with milk;
And all the brooks and riverbeds of Judah will flow with water,
And a fountain will go out from the house of the Lord
To water the [desert] Valley of Shittim.(B)
Joel 3:16-18
New International Version
16 The Lord will roar(A) from Zion
and thunder from Jerusalem;(B)
the earth and the heavens will tremble.(C)
But the Lord will be a refuge(D) for his people,
a stronghold(E) for the people of Israel.
Blessings for God’s People
