Bible verse
The LORD raises His voice in the presence of His army. Indeed, His camp is very large, for mighty are those who obey His command. For the Day of the LORD is great and very dreadful. Who can endure it?
Joel 2:11 · BSB
The verses around it, from Joel 2.
7 They charge like mighty men; they scale the walls like men of war. Each one marches in formation, not swerving from the course.
8 They do not jostle one another; each proceeds in his path. They burst through the defenses, never breaking ranks.
9 They storm the city; they run along the wall; they climb into houses, entering through windows like thieves.
10 Before them the earth quakes; the heavens tremble. The sun and moon grow dark, and the stars lose their brightness.
11 The LORD raises His voice in the presence of His army. Indeed, His camp is very large, for mighty are those who obey His command. For the Day of the LORD is great and very dreadful. Who can endure it?
12 “Yet even now,” declares the LORD, “return to Me with all your heart, with fasting, weeping, and mourning.”
13 So rend your hearts and not your garments, and return to the LORD your God. For He is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger, abounding in loving devotion. And He relents from sending disaster.
14 Who knows? He may turn and relent and leave a blessing behind Him—grain and drink offerings for the LORD your God.
15 Blow the ram’s horn in Zion, consecrate a fast, proclaim a sacred assembly.
