Joel 2:1

[If Joel is an early prophet, this may be a warning of an Assyrian invasion. The Assyrians were known as fierce warriors and displayed innovative military skills that helped them expand their territory.]
Blow the shofar (ram's horn) in Zion [the temple mount in Jerusalem]!
Sound the alarm on my holy mountain!
Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble (shake, quake),
for the day of the Lord (Yahweh) is coming,
it is indeed near.
