The great day of YAHWEH is near, right around the corner, closer than you think and coming fast. How bitter will be the sound of the day of YAHWEH, when even the brave warriors weep in anguish. It will be a day of wrath, a day of terror and trouble, a day of desolation and distress, a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and thick darkness, a day of shofar blasts and battle shouts against fortified cities and all the lofty towers. “I will bring such distress on people that they will grope their way like the blind for having sinned against me. Their blood will be poured out like dust, yes, their flesh like dung. On that day, I will display my great anger, and none of their silver or gold will save them. My avenging zeal will burn like a fire on that day, to consume the entire land. For I will bring a terrible and sudden end that will destroy everyone living in the land.”
