Joel 2:4-6

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁴ They have the appearance of horses,
    and like war-horses they charge.
⁵ As with the rumbling of chariots,
    they leap on the tops of the mountains,
like the crackling of a flame of fire
    devouring the stubble,
like a powerful army
    drawn up for battle.

⁶ Before them peoples are in anguish,
    all faces grow pale.^[a]
