Joel 1:17-20

17The 12seeds shrivel under their 3clods; The storehouses are desolate, The barns are torn down, For the grain is dried up.18How 4the beasts groan! The herds of cattle wander aimlessly Because there is no pasture for them; Even the flocks of sheep 5suffer.196To You, O Lord, I cry; For 7fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness And the flame has burned up all the trees of the field.20Even the beasts of the field 89pant for You; For the 10water brooks are dried up And fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness.
