American King James Version
"Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces shall gather blackness. "
— Joel 2:6, American King James Version
“Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces shall gather blackness.”
“At their presence the peoples are in anguish; all faces are waxed pale. ”
“At their presence the peoples are in anguish. All faces have grown pale.”
“People writhe in fear when they see them. All of their faces turn pale with fright.”
“At their presence the people shall be in grievous pains: all faces shall be made like a kettle.”
“At their coming the people are bent with pain: all faces become red together.”
“Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces shall gather blackness.”
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 nothing shall escape them.
The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run.
Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devours the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array.
Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces shall gather blackness.
They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march every one on his ways, and they shall not break their ranks:
Neither shall one thrust another; they shall walk every one in his path: and when they fall on the sword, they shall not be wounded.
They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run on the wall, they shall climb up on the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief.
