the noise.
like the noise of a.
a strong.
 In this remarkable way the prophet mingles the name and day of Jehovah with the Assyrians employed then to do His work. The same enemy is called in Isaiah 10 “the rod of his anger,” “the ax” that boasted itself over Him that hewed with it. Surely therefore the Lord Jehovah will turn against that ax and destroy it. He will employ it to accomplish His purposes upon a guilty people; but inasmuch as it destroyed them unmercifully and without the slightest fear of God, He, will turn upon that which exalted itself, taking advantage of His displeasure to destroy His poor people if it could be. (Joel 3 by W. Kelly)

Like the noise of chariots, on the tops of the mountains, they leap; like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array.
