¹² “Let the nations be roused;
    let them advance into the Valley of Jehoshaphat,^(A)
for there I will sit
    to judge^(B) all the nations on every side.
¹³ Swing the sickle,^(C)
    for the harvest^(D) is ripe.
Come, trample the grapes,^(E)
    for the winepress^(F) is full
    and the vats overflow—
so great is their wickedness!”

¹⁴ Multitudes,^(G) multitudes
    in the valley^(H) of decision!
For the day of the Lord^(I) is near
    in the valley of decision.^(J)
15 The sun and moon will be darkened,
    and the stars no longer shine.^(K)
16 The Lord will roar^(L) from Zion
    and thunder from Jerusalem;^(M)
    the earth and the heavens will tremble.^(N)
But the Lord will be a refuge^(O) for his people,
    a stronghold^(P) for the people of Israel.
