Egya rehye wɔ wɔn anim, ogyaframa dɛre wɔ wɔn akyi, asase a ɛda wɔn anim no te sɛ Eden turo, deɛ ɛda wɔn akyi no te sɛ anweatam, biribiara nni hɔ a ɛpa wɔn ani so.
Joel 2:3 in English
Joel 2:3 · Berean Standard Bible
Before them a fire devours, and behind them a flame scorches. The land before them is like the Garden of Eden, but behind them, it is like a desert wasteland— surely nothing will escape them.
