1Gather yourselves together, yes, gather together, you nation that has no shame,
1不知羞耻的国民哪，你们应当聚集！ 趁命令没有发出， 日子过去如 风前的 糠， 耶和华的烈怒未临到你们， 他发怒的日子未到以先， 你们应当聚集前来。
2before the appointed time when the day passes as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the LORD comes on you, before the day of the LORD’s anger comes on you.
