Blow the trumpet in Zion;d

sound the alarm on my holy mountain!

Let all the residents of the land tremble,

for the day of the Lord is coming;e

in fact, it is near—

2 a day of darkness and gloom,f

a day of clouds and total darkness,g

like the dawn spreading over the mountains;

a great and strong peopleh appears,

such as never existed in ages pasti

and never will again

in all the generations to come.j
