The LORD’s answer, “Behold, I will send you grain, new wine, and oil”, and the early and the latter rain
곡식과 새 포도주와 기름을 주리라는 여호와의 응답과 이른 비와 늦은 비
Joel 2:18–27: the text says, “Then the LORD was jealous for his land, and had pity on his people. The LORD answered his people, ‘Behold, I will send you grain, new wine, and oil, and you will be satisfied with them; and I will no more make you a reproach among the nations. But I will remove the northern army far away from you, and will drive it into a barren and desolate land, its front into the eastern sea, and its back into the western sea; and its stench will come up, and its bad smell will rise.’ Surely he has done great things. Land, don’t be afraid. Be glad and rejoice, for the LORD has done great things. Don’t be afraid, you animals of the field; for the pastures of the wilderness spring up, for the tree bears its fruit. The fig tree and the vine yield their strength. Be glad then, you children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD, your God; for he gives you the early rain in just measure, and he causes the rain to come down for you, the early rain and the latter rain, as before. The threshing floors will be full of wheat, and the vats will overflow with new wine and oil. I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the great locust, the grasshopper, and the caterpillar, my great army, which I sent among you. You will have plenty to eat and be satisfied, and will praise the name of the LORD, your God, who has dealt wondrously with you; and my people will never again be disappointed. You will know that I am among Israel, and that I am the LORD, your God, and there is no one else; and my people will never again be disappointed.” WEB closes the LORD’s answer before “Surely he has done great things”, and opens a quotation at 2:23, before “Be glad then”, which it does not close within these verses. The Korean Revised Version tells 2:18–20 as what will be (그 백성을 긍휼히 여기실 것이라; 응답하여 이르시기를 … 하시리라), reads 그들에게, to them, at 2:19 where WEB reads “his people”, and keeps 이는 큰 일을 행하였음이니라 inside the LORD’s words, which it closes with 하시리라. At 2:23 it reads 그가 너희를 위하여 비를 내리시되 이른 비를 너희에게 적당하게 주시리니, of what he will give; and at 2:25 it names the great army first (내가 전에 너희에게 보낸 큰 군대 곧 메뚜기와 늣과 황충과 팟종이), where WEB names the insects first and then “my great army, which I sent among you”.
