Joel 2

⁵ With a sound like that of chariots they bound over the mountaintops, like the crackling of fire consuming stubble, like a mighty army deployed for battle.

⁶ Nations writhe in horror before them; every face turns pale.

⁷ They charge like mighty men; they scale the walls like men of war. Each one marches in formation, not swerving from the course.

⁸ They do not jostle one another; each proceeds in his path. They burst through the defenses, never breaking ranks.

⁹ They storm the city; they run along the wall; they climb into houses, entering through windows like thieves.
