Joel 1:8-13

8WailH421 like a virginH1330 dressedH2296 in sackclothH8242, grieving forH5921 the husbandH1167 of her youthH5271.9Grain and drink offeringsH4503H5262 have been cut offH3772 from the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068; the priestsH3548 are in mourningH56, those who ministerH8334 before the LORDH3068.10The fieldH7704 is ruinedH7703; the landH127 mournsH56. ForH3588 the grainH1715 is destroyedH7703, the new wineH8492H535 is dried upH3001, and the oil failsH3323.11Be dismayedH954, O farmersH406, wailH3213, O vinedressersH3755, overH5921 the wheatH2406 andH5921 barleyH8184, becauseH3588 the harvestH7105 of the fieldH7704 has perishedH6.12The grapevineH1612 is dried upH3001, and the fig treeH8384 is witheredH535; the pomegranateH7416H1571, palmH8558, and appleH8598— allH3605 the treesH6086 of the orchardH7704—are witheredH3001. SurelyH3588 the joyH8342 ofH4480 mankindH1121H120 has dried upH954.

13Put onH2296 sackcloth and lamentH5594, O priestsH3548;wailH3213, O ministersH8334 of the altarH4196.ComeH935, spend the nightH3885 in sackclothH8242,O ministersH8334 of my GodH430,becauseH3588 the grainH4503 and drink offeringsH5262are withheldH4513 from the houseH1004 of your GodH430.
