Joel 2:21

The Response And Promise Of Yahweh

²⁰ I will drive the northerner far from you
and banish him to a dry and desolate land,
his front ranks into the Dead Sea,
and his rear guard into the Mediterranean Sea.
His stench will rise;
yes, his rotten smell will rise,
for he has done catastrophic things. ²¹ Don’t be afraid, land;
rejoice and be glad,
for the Lord has done great things.
²² Don’t be afraid, wild animals,
for the wilderness pastures have turned green,
the trees bear their fruit,
and the fig tree and grapevine yield their riches.
