Verse 1א׳Standard3,585

תִּקְעוּ שׁוֹפָר בְּצִיּוֹן וְהָרִיעוּ בְּהַר קָדְשִׁי יִרְגְּזוּ כֹּל יֹשְׁבֵי הָאָרֶץ כִּֽי־בָא יוֹם־יְהוָה כִּי קָרֽוֹב

Blow ye the horn in Zion, And sound an alarm in My holy mountain; Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble; For the day of the LORD cometh, For it is at hand;

Verse 2ב׳Standard4,801

יוֹם חֹשֶׁךְ וַאֲפֵלָה יוֹם עָנָן וַעֲרָפֶל כְּשַׁחַר פָּרֻשׂ עַל־הֶֽהָרִים עַם רַב וְעָצוּם כָּמֹהוּ לֹא נִֽהְיָה מִן־הָעוֹלָם וְאַֽחֲרָיו לֹא יוֹסֵף עַד־שְׁנֵי דּוֹר וָדֽוֹר

A day of darkness and gloominess, A day of clouds and thick darkness, As blackness spread upon the mountains; A great people and a mighty, There hath not been ever the like, Neither shall be any more after them, Even to the years of many generations.

Verse 3ג׳Standard3,451

לְפָנָיו אָכְלָה אֵשׁ וְאַחֲרָיו תְּלַהֵט לֶֽהָבָה כְּגַן־עֵדֶן הָאָרֶץ לְפָנָיו וְאַֽחֲרָיו מִדְבַּר שְׁמָמָה וְגַם־פְּלֵיטָה לֹא־הָיְתָה לּֽוֹ

A fire devoureth before them, And behind them a flame blazeth; The land is as the garden of Eden before them, And behind them a desolate wilderness; Yea, and nothing escapeth them.

Verse 4ד׳Standard1,782

כְּמַרְאֵה סוּסִים מַרְאֵהוּ וּכְפָרָשִׁים כֵּן יְרוּצֽוּן

The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; And as horsemen, so do they run.

Verse 5ה׳Standard3,770

כְּקוֹל מַרְכָּבוֹת עַל־רָאשֵׁי הֶֽהָרִים יְרַקֵּדוּן כְּקוֹל לַהַב אֵשׁ אֹכְלָה קָשׁ כְּעַם עָצוּם עֱרוּךְ מִלְחָמָֽה

Like the noise of chariots, On the tops of the mountains do they leap, Like the noise of a flame of fire That devoureth the stubble, As a mighty people set in battle array.

Verse 6ו׳Standard1,325

מִפָּנָיו יָחִילוּ עַמִּים כָּל־פָּנִים קִבְּצוּ פָארֽוּר

At their presence the peoples are in anguish; All faces have gathered blackness.

Verse 7ז׳Standard2,830

כְּגִבּוֹרִים יְרֻצוּן כְּאַנְשֵׁי מִלְחָמָה יַעֲלוּ חוֹמָה וְאִישׁ בִּדְרָכָיו יֵֽלֵכוּן וְלֹא יְעַבְּטוּן אֹרְחוֹתָֽם

They run like mighty men, They climb the wall like men of war; And they move on every one in his ways, And they entangle not their paths.

Verse 8ח׳Standard2,170

וְאִישׁ אָחִיו לֹא יִדְחָקוּן גֶּבֶר בִּמְסִלָּתוֹ יֵֽלֵכוּן וּבְעַד הַשֶּׁלַח יִפֹּלוּ לֹא יִבְצָֽעוּ

Neither doth one thrust another, They march every one in his highway; And they break through the weapons, And suffer no harm.

Verse 9ט׳Standard2,004

בָּעִיר יָשֹׁקּוּ בַּֽחוֹמָה יְרֻצוּן בַּבָּתִּים יַעֲלוּ בְּעַד הַחַלּוֹנִים יָבֹאוּ כַּגַּנָּֽב

They leap upon the city, They run upon the wall, They climb up into the houses; They enter in at the windows like a thief.

Verse 10י׳Standard3,171

לְפָנָיו רָגְזָה אֶרֶץ רָעֲשׁוּ שָׁמָיִם שֶׁמֶשׁ וְיָרֵחַ קָדָרוּ וְכוֹכָבִים אָסְפוּ נָגְהָֽם

Before them the earth quaketh, The heavens tremble; The sun and the moon are become black, And the stars withdraw their shining.
