Joel 1:2-7

2HearH8085 this, ye oldH2205 menH2205, and giveH238 earH238, all ye inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776. Hath this beenH1961 in your daysH3117, or in the daysH3117 of your fathersH1? 3Tell ye your children of it, and let your children tell their children, and their children another generationH1755. 4That which the palmer-worm hath left hath the locustH697 eatenH398; and that which the locustH697 hath left hath the canker-worm eatenH398; and that which the canker-worm hath left hath the caterpillar eatenH398.

5Awake, ye drunkardsH7910, and weepH1058; and wailH3213, all ye drinkersH8354 of wineH3196, because of the sweetH6071 wineH3196; for it is cutH3772 off from your mouthH6310. 6For a nationH1471 is comeH5927 up upon my landH776, strong, and without numberH4557; his teethH8127 are the teethH8127 of a lionH738, and he hath the jaw-teeth of a lionessH3833. 7He hath laid my vineH1612 wasteH8047, and barked my fig-tree: he hath madeH7760 it clean bareH2834, and castH7993 it awayH7993; the branchesH8299 thereof are madeH7760 whiteH3835.
