Joel 2:5-7

Contemporary English Version

⁵ They roar over mountains
    like noisy chariots,
or a mighty army
    ready for battle.
They are a forest fire
    that feasts on straw.
⁶ The very sight of them
    is frightening.^[a]
7 They climb over walls
    like warriors;
they march in columns
    and never turn aside.^[b]
