Joe 2, 1-32

1 Blow the trumpet in Zion, wail on my holy mountain, let all the inhabitants of the land be stirred up. For the day of the Lord is on its way; for it is near: 2 a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and whirlwinds. Like the morning reaching over the mountains, they are a numerous and strong people. Nothing like them has existed since the beginning, nor will exist after them, even in the years of generation upon generation. 3 Before their face is a devouring fire, and behind them is a burning flame. The land before them is like a lush garden, and behind them is a desolate desert, and there is no one who can escape them. 4 Their appearance is like the appearance of horses, and they will rush forward like horsemen. 5 Like the sound of a four-horse chariot, they will leap over the tops of the mountains. Like the sound of a burning flame devouring stubble, they are as a strong people prepared for battle. 6 Before their face, the people will be tortured; each one’s appearance will retreat, as if into a jar. 7 They will rush forward, as if they were strong. Like valiant warriors, they will ascend the wall. The men will advance, each one on his own way, and they will not turn aside from their path. 8 And each one will not hem in his brother; every one will walk in his own rough path. Moreover, they will drop through the breach and not be harmed. 9 They will advance into the city; they will rush through the wall. They will scale the houses; they will go in through the windows, like a thief. 10 Before their face, the earth has trembled, the heavens have been moved. The sun and moon have been obscured, and the stars have retracted their splendor. 11 And the Lord has bestowed his voice before the face of his army. For its military camps are very numerous; for they are strong and they carry out his word. For the day of the Lord is great and so very terrible, and who can withstand it? 12 Now, therefore, the Lord says: “Be converted to me with your whole heart, in fasting and weeping and mourning.” 13 And rend your hearts, and not your garments, and convert to the Lord your God. For he is gracious and merciful, patient and full of compassion, and steadfast despite ill will. 14 Who knows if he might convert and forgive, and bequeath a blessing after him, a sacrifice and a libation to the Lord your God? 15 Blow the trumpet in Zion, 514 sanctify a fast, call an assembly. 16 Gather the people, sanctify the church, unite the elders, gather together the little ones and infants at the breast. Let the bridegroom depart from his bed, and the bride from her bridal chamber. 17 Between the vestibule and the altar, the priests, the ministers of the Lord, will weep, and they will say: “Spare, O Lord, spare your people. And do not bequeath your inheritance into disgrace, so that the nations would rule over them. Why should they say among the peoples, ‘Where is their God?’ ” 18 The Lord has been zealous for his land, and he has spared his people. 19 And the Lord responded, and he said to his people: “Behold, I will send you grain and wine and oil, and you will again be filled with them. And I will no longer give you disgrace among the Gentiles. 20 And he who is from the North, I will drive far from you. And I will expel him into an impassable land, and into the desert, with his face opposite the Eastern sea, and his furthest part towards the furthest sea. And his stench will ascend, and his rottenness will ascend, because he has acted arrogantly. 21 Earth, do not be afraid. Exult and rejoice. For the Lord has great esteem for what he has done. 22 Animals of the countryside, do not be afraid. For the beauty of the wilderness has sprung forth. For the tree has borne its fruit. The fig tree and the vine have bestowed their virtue. 23 And you, sons of Zion, exult and rejoice in the Lord your God. For he has given you a teacher of justice, and he will make the early and the late rains descend to you, just as it was in the beginning. 24 And the threshing floors will be filled with grain, and the presses will overflow with wine and oil. 25 And I will repay you for the years which the locust, and the beetle, and the mildew, and the caterpillar consumed: my great strength which I sent upon you. 26 And you will eat with enjoyment, and you will be satisfied, and you will praise the name of the Lord your God, who has worked miracles with you, and my people will not be confounded forever. 27 And you will know that I am in the midst of Israel, and I am the Lord your God, and there is no other, and my people will not be confounded forever. 28 And after this, it will happen that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh, and your sons and your daughters will prophesy; your elders will dream dreams, and your youths will see visions. 29 Moreover, in those days I will pour out my spirit upon my servants and handmaids. 30 And I will grant wonders in the sky and on earth: blood and fire and the vapor of smoke. 31 The sun will be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord shall arrive. 32 And it will happen that everyone who will call upon the name of the Lord will be saved. For on Mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and in the remnant whom the Lord will call, there will be salvation, just as the Lord has said.

Joel 2,2 - Národ sú aj tu kobylky, porov. 1,6, tie tiahnu ako mračná. – Podľa niektorých je v hl. 2 už nie reč o kobylkách, ale o nepriateľskom vojsku.

Joel 2,3 - O záhrade Eden pozri pozn. k Iz 51,3; porov. Ez 28,13.

Joel 2,4 - Podobný opis kobyliek pozri Zjv 9,7–9.

Joel 2,6 - "Z tvárí sa červeň sťahuje" rozumej: tváre blednú od strachu.

Joel 2,10 - O zjavoch, opísaných v tomto verši, pozri pozn. k Iz 13,10. Proroci často spájajú blízke pohromy s pohromami ďalekej budúcnosti, najmä s posledným súdom. Aj Pán Ježiš hovoril v jednej reči aj o skaze Jeruzalema, aj o poslednom súde.

Joel 2,11 - Aj záplava kobyliek je len Pánovo vojsko, plní jeho rozkaz.

Joel 2,13 - Roztrhnuté rúcho bolo u Izraelitov, (a je podnes) znak smútku. Ale vonkajšie znaky bez vnútornej ľútosti nemajú ceny.

Joel 2,14 - Pán prišiel síce trestať, ale ak bude vidieť, že sa národ obrátil a činí pokánie, zmení trest na požehnanie, dá hojnú úrodu, ktorá zase umožní obety.

Joel 2,17 - Prorok má pred očami svoj národ, veriaci v jedného Boha. Keby národ priveľmi trpel, pohania by sa mu posmievali, že nemá Boha, že sa nemá kto oň starať. "Národy" – sú pohania – modloslužobníci.

Joel 2,20 - Východné more je Mŕtve more, Západné je Stredozemné more. Do týchto morí vženie Boh kobylky, ktoré prišli od severu a priveľmi spustošili krajinu. Ale Boh chce súčasne azda ubezpečiť národ aj o tom, že zničí aj nepriateľské vojská Asýrov a iných nepriateľov, ktoré spravidla tiež prichádzali od severu. – Výkal a zdochliny kobyliek rozširovali zápach.

Joel 2,21-27 - Boh sľubuje, že po pliage kobyliek prídu roky požehnania a hojnosti. Opisovanie takýchto hojných čias vyvolalo u Izraelitov vždy myšlienku na požehnané mesiášske časy. Aj Joel na ne myslí, lebo už tu sľubuje národu "Učiteľa spravodlivosti", Mesiáša. Takto tvorí táto stať akýsi prechod k nasledujúcej, už nesporne mesiášskej stati. – Vo verši 25 sa opakujú tie isté štyri názvy kobyliek, s ktorými sme sa stretli v 1,4.
