Before them the earth shakes, the heavens tremble, the sun and moon are darkened, and the stars no longer shine.

The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD.

The earth quakes before them; the heavens tremble. The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining.

The sun shall be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood, before the great and awesome day of the LORD comes.

The earth quakes as they advance, and the heavens tremble. The sun and moon grow dark, and the stars no longer shine.

The sun will become dark, and the moon will turn blood red before that great and terrible day of the LORD arrives.

The earth quakes before them;  the sky shakes. The sun and moon grow dark,  and the stars cease their shining.

The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood  before the great and terrible day of the  LORD  comes.

The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining

The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.

The earth quakes before them, The heavens tremble; The sun and moon grow dark, And the stars diminish their brightness.

The sun shall be turned into darkness, And the moon into blood, Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the LORD.

The invaders charge. They climb barricades. Nothing stops them. Each soldier does what he’s told, so disciplined, so determined. They don’t get in each other’s way. Each one knows his job and does it. Undaunted and fearless, unswerving, unstoppable. They storm the city, swarm its defenses, Loot the houses, breaking down doors, smashing windows. They arrive like an earthquake, sweep through like a tornado. Sun and moon turn out their lights, stars black out. GOD himself bellows in thunder as he commands his forces. Look at the size of that army! And the strength of those who obey him! GOD’s Judgment Day—great and terrible. Who can possibly survive this?

“And that’s just the beginning: After that— “I will pour out my Spirit on every kind of people: Your sons will prophesy, also your daughters. Your old men will dream, your young men will see visions. I’ll even pour out my Spirit on the servants, men and women both. I’ll set wonders in the sky above and signs on the earth below: Blood and fire and billowing smoke, the sun turning black and the moon blood-red, Before the Judgment Day of GOD, the Day tremendous and awesome. Whoever calls, ‘Help, GOD!’ gets help. On Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be a great rescue—just as GOD said. Included in the survivors are those that GOD calls.”

Before them the earth quakes, The heavens tremble, The sun and the moon become dark, And the stars lose their brightness.

“The sun will be turned into darkness, And the moon into blood, Before the great and awesome day of the LORD comes.

The earth quakes before them, The heavens tremble, The sun and the moon grow dark And the stars lose their brightness. [Rev 9:2-4; 16:14]

“The sun will be turned into darkness And the moon into blood Before the great and terrible day of the LORD comes. [Is 13:6, 9-11; 24:21-23; Ezek 32:7-10; Matt 24:29, 30; Rev 6:12-17]

The earth quakes before them; the sky reverberates. The sun and the moon grow dark; the stars refuse to shine.

The sunlight will be turned to darkness and the moon to the color of blood, before the day of the LORD comes – that great and terrible day!
