+Book 29 Joel
+001:001 The Word of Yahweh that came to Joel, the son of Pethuel.
+001:002 Hear this, you elders, And listen, all you inhabitants of the land.
+        Has this ever happened in your days, or in the days
+        of your fathers?
+001:003 Tell your children about it, and have your children tell
+        their children, and their children, another generation.
+001:004 What the swarming locust has left, the great locust has eaten.
+        What the great locust has left, the grasshopper has eaten.
+        What the grasshopper has left, the caterpillar has eaten.
+001:005 Wake up, you drunkards, and weep!  Wail, all you drinkers of wine,
+        because of the sweet wine; for it is cut off from your mouth.
+001:006 For a nation has come up on my land, strong, and without number.
+        His teeth are the teeth of a lion, and he has the fangs
+        of a lioness.
+001:007 He has laid my vine waste, and stripped my fig tree.
+        He has stripped its bark, and thrown it away.  Its branches
+        are made white.
+001:008 Mourn like a virgin dressed in sackcloth for the husband
+        of her youth!
+001:009 The meal offering and the drink offering are cut off from
+        Yahweh's house.  The priests, Yahweh's ministers, mourn.
+001:010 The field is laid waste.  The land mourns, for the grain
+        is destroyed, The new wine has dried up, and the oil languishes.
+001:011 Be confounded, you farmers!  Wail, you vineyard keepers;
+        for the wheat and for the barley; for the harvest of the
+        field has perished.
+001:012 The vine has dried up, and the fig tree withered;
+        the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree,
+        even all of the trees of the field are withered; for joy has
+        withered away from the sons of men.
+001:013 Put on sackcloth and mourn, you priests!  Wail, you ministers
+        of the altar.  Come, lie all night in sackcloth, you ministers
+        of my God, for the meal offering and the drink offering are
+        withheld from your God's house.
+001:014 Sanctify a fast.  Call a solemn assembly.  Gather the elders,
+        and all the inhabitants of the land, to the house of Yahweh,
+        your God, and cry to Yahweh.
+001:015 Alas for the day!  For the day of Yahweh is at hand, and it
+        will come as destruction from the Almighty.
+001:016 Isn't the food cut off before our eyes; joy and gladness
+        from the house of our God?
+001:017 The seeds rot under their clods.  The granaries are laid desolate.
+        The barns are broken down, for the grain has withered.
+001:018 How the animals groan!  The herds of livestock are perplexed,
+        because they have no pasture.  Yes, the flocks of sheep
+        are made desolate.
+001:019 Yahweh, I cry to you, For the fire has devoured the pastures
+        of the wilderness, and the flame has burned all the trees
+        of the field.
+001:020 Yes, the animals of the field pant to you, for the water
+        brooks have dried up, And the fire has devoured the pastures
+        of the wilderness.
+002:001 Blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain!
+        Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, for the day
+        of Yahweh comes, for it is close at hand:
+002:002 A day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness.
+        As the dawn spreading on the mountains, a great and strong people;
+        there has never been the like, neither will there be any more
+        after them, even to the years of many generations.
+002:003 A fire devours before them, and behind them, a flame burns.
+        The land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them,
+        a desolate wilderness.  Yes, and no one has escaped them.
+002:004 The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses,
+        and as horsemen, so do they run.
+002:005 Like the noise of chariots on the tops of the mountains do they leap,
+        like the noise of a flame of fire that devours the stubble,
+        as a strong people set in battle array.
+002:006 At their presence the peoples are in anguish.  All faces
+        have grown pale.
+002:007 They run like mighty men.  They climb the wall like warriors.
+        They each march in his line, and they don't swerve off course.
+002:008 Neither does one jostle another; they march everyone in his path,
+        and they burst through the defenses, and don't break ranks.
+002:009 They rush on the city.  They run on the wall.  They climb up
+        into the houses.  They enter in at the windows like thieves.
+002:010 The earth quakes before them.  The heavens tremble.
+        The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars
+        withdraw their shining.
+002:011 Yahweh thunders his voice before his army; for his forces
+        are very great; for he is strong who obeys his command;
+        for the day of Yahweh is great and very awesome, and who
+        can endure it?
+002:012 "Yet even now," says Yahweh, "turn to me with all your heart,
+        and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning."
+002:013 Tear your heart, and not your garments, and turn to Yahweh,
+        your God; for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger,
+        and abundant in loving kindness, and relents from sending calamity.
+002:014 Who knows?  He may turn and relent, and leave a blessing behind him,
+        even a meal offering and a drink offering to Yahweh, your God.
+002:015 Blow the trumpet in Zion!  Sanctify a fast.  Call a solemn assembly.
+002:016 Gather the people.  Sanctify the assembly.  Assemble the elders.
+        Gather the children, and those who suck the breasts.
+        Let the bridegroom go forth from his room, and the bride
+        out of her chamber.
+002:017 Let the priests, the ministers of Yahweh, weep between the porch
+        and the altar, and let them say, "Spare your people, Yahweh,
+        and don't give your heritage to reproach, that the nations
+        should rule over them.  Why should they say among the peoples,
+        'Where is their God?'"
+002:018 Then Yahweh was jealous for his land, And had pity on his people.
+002:019 Yahweh answered his people, "Behold, I will send you grain,
+        new wine, and oil, and you will be satisfied with them;
+        and I will no more make you a reproach among the nations.
+002:020 But I will remove the northern army far away from you,
+        and will drive it into a barren and desolate land, its front
+        into the eastern sea, and its back into the western sea;
+        and its stench will come up, and its bad smell will rise."
+        Surely he has done great things.
+002:021 Land, don't be afraid.  Be glad and rejoice, for Yahweh has
+        done great things.
+002:022 Don't be afraid, you animals of the field; for the pastures
+        of the wilderness spring up, for the tree bears its fruit.
+        The fig tree and the vine yield their strength.
+002:023 "Be glad then, you children of Zion, and rejoice in Yahweh,
+        your God; for he gives you the former rain in just measure,
+        and he causes the rain to come down for you, the former rain
+        and the latter rain, as before.
+002:024 The threshing floors will be full of wheat, and the vats
+        will overflow with new wine and oil.
+002:025 I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten,
+        the great locust, the grasshopper, and the caterpillar,
+        my great army, which I sent among you.
+002:026 You will have plenty to eat, and be satisfied, and will praise
+        the name of Yahweh, your God, who has dealt wondrously with you;
+        and my people will never again be disappointed.
+002:027 You will know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I
+        am Yahweh, your God, and there is no one else; and my people
+        will never again be disappointed.
+002:028 "It will happen afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on
+        all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will prophesy.
+        Your old men will dream dreams.  Your young men will see visions.
+002:029 And also on the servants and on the handmaids in those days,
+        I will pour out my Spirit.
+002:030 I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth:
+        blood, fire, and pillars of smoke.
+002:031 The sun will be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood,
+        before the great and terrible day of Yahweh comes.
+002:032 It will happen that whoever will call on the name of Yahweh
+        shall be saved; for in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will
+        be those who escape, as Yahweh has said, and among the remnant,
+        those whom Yahweh calls.
+003:001 "For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I restore
+        the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,
+003:002 I will gather all nations, and will bring them down into
+        the valley of Jehoshaphat; and I will execute judgment on them
+        there for my people, and for my heritage, Israel, whom they
+        have scattered among the nations.  They have divided my land,
+003:003 and have cast lots for my people, and have given a boy for
+        a prostitute, and sold a girl for wine, that they may drink.
+003:004 "Yes, and what are you to me, Tyre, and Sidon,
+        and all the regions of Philistia?  Will you repay me?
+        And if you repay me, I will swiftly and speedily return
+        your repayment on your own head.
+003:005 Because you have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried
+        my finest treasures into your temples,
+003:006 and have sold the children of Judah and the children of Jerusalem
+        to the sons of the Greeks, that you may remove them far
+        from their border.
+003:007 Behold, I will stir them up out of the place where you have
+        sold them, and will return your repayment on your own head;
+003:008 and I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hands
+        of the children of Judah, and they will sell them to the men
+        of Sheba, to a faraway nation, for Yahweh has spoken it."
+003:009 Proclaim this among the nations:  "Prepare for war!
+        Stir up the mighty men.  Let all the warriors draw near.
+        Let them come up.
+003:010 Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruning hooks into spears.
+        Let the weak say, 'I am strong.'
+003:011 Hurry and come, all you surrounding nations, and gather
+        yourselves together."  Cause your mighty ones to come
+        down there, Yahweh.
+003:012 "Let the nations arouse themselves, and come up to the valley
+        of Jehoshaphat; for there will I sit to judge all
+        the surrounding nations.
+003:013 Put in the sickle; for the harvest is ripe.  Come, tread,
+        for the winepress is full, the vats overflow, for their
+        wickedness is great."
+003:014 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision!
+        For the day of Yahweh is near, in the valley of decision.
+003:015 The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars
+        withdraw their shining.
+003:016 Yahweh will roar from Zion, and thunder from Jerusalem;
+        and the heavens and the earth will shake; but Yahweh will be a
+        refuge to his people, and a stronghold to the children of Israel.
+003:017 "So you will know that I am Yahweh, your God, dwelling in Zion,
+        my holy mountain.  Then Jerusalem will be holy, and no strangers
+        will pass through her any more.
+003:018 It will happen in that day, that the mountains will drop down
+        sweet wine, the hills will flow with milk, all the brooks
+        of Judah will flow with waters, and a fountain will come forth
+        from the house of Yahweh, and will water the valley of Shittim.
+003:019 Egypt will be a desolation, and Edom will be a desolate wilderness,
+        for the violence done to the children of Judah, because they
+        have shed innocent blood in their land.
+003:020 But Judah will be inhabited forever, and Jerusalem from
+        generation to generation.
+003:021 I will cleanse their blood, that I have not cleansed:
+        for Yahweh dwells in Zion."

+Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we usually do not
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+We are now trying to release all our eBooks one year in advance
+of the official release dates, leaving time for better editing.
+Please be encouraged to tell us about any error or corrections,
+even years after the official publication date.
+
+Please note neither this listing nor its contents are final til
+midnight of the last day of the month of any such announcement.
+The official release date of all Project Gutenberg eBooks is at
+Midnight, Central Time, of the last day of the stated month.  A
+preliminary version may often be posted for suggestion, comment
+and editing by those who wish to do so.
+
+Most people start at our Web sites at:
+https://gutenberg.org or
+http://promo.net/pg
+
+These Web sites include award-winning information about Project
+Gutenberg, including how to donate, how to help produce our new
+eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter (free!).
+
+
+Those of you who want to download any eBook before announcement
+can get to them as follows, and just download by date.  This is
+also a good way to get them instantly upon announcement, as the
+indexes our cataloguers produce obviously take a while after an
+announcement goes out in the Project Gutenberg Newsletter.

+
+We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work.  The
+time it takes us, a rather conservative estimate, is fifty hours
+to get any eBook selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright
+searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc.   Our
+projected audience is one hundred million readers.  If the value
+per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2
+million dollars per hour in 2002 as we release over 100 new text
+files per month:  1240 more eBooks in 2001 for a total of 4000+
+We are already on our way to trying for 2000 more eBooks in 2002
+If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total
+will reach over half a trillion eBooks given away by year's end.
+
+The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away 1 Trillion eBooks!
+This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers,
+which is only about 4% of the present number of computer users.
