Zephaniah 1:14-18
The great day of the LORD is near, it is near, and hasteth greatly, even the 
voice of the day of the LORD: the mighty man shall cry there bitterly.  That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness 
and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick 
darkness, a day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities, and against the high 
towers.
 And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because 
they have sinned against the LORD: and their blood shall be poured out as dust, 
and their flesh as the dung.  Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of 
the LORD'S wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his 
jealousy: for he shall make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwell in the 
land.
The word translated "alarm" in verse 16 is Teruah, the same word used to define the First of Tishri in Leviticus 23.  
The Feast of Trumpets.
