Yoel 3:12-21 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

12. (4:12) Let the Goyim be wakened, and come up to the valley of Yehoshafat; for there will I sit to judge all the Goyim round about.

13. (4:13) Put ye in the sickle, for the katzir is ripe; go in, tread; for the winepress is full, the vats overflow; for their ra'ah is great.

14. (4:14) Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision; for the Yom Hashem is near in the valley of decision.

15. (4:15) The shemesh and the yarei'ach shall be darkened, and the kokhavim shall withdraw their shining.

16. (4:16) Hashem also shall roar out of Tziyon, and utter His voice from Yerushalayim; and the heavens and the earth shall shake; but Hashem will be the machseh (refuge) of His people, and the maoz of the Bnei Yisroel.

17. (4:17) So shall ye have da'as that I am Hashem Eloheichem dwelling in Tziyon, My Har Kodesh; then shall Yerushalayim be kodesh, and there shall no zarim pass through her any more.

18. (4:18) And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down new wine, and the hills shall flow with cholov; and all the ravines of Yehudah shall flow with mayim, and a ma'ayon shall come forth out of the Beis Hashem, and shall water the valley of Sheetim.

19. (4:19) Mitzrayim shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate midbar, for the chamas against the Bnei Yehudah, because they have shed dahm naki (innocent blood) in their land.

20. (4:20) But Yehudah shall dwell for ever, and Yerushalayim from dor v'dor.

21. (4:21) For I will cleanse them of bloodguilt which I have not yet cleansed; for Hashem dwelleth in Tziyon.
