10The fieldH7704 is 1ruinedH7703, 2The landH127 mournsH56; For the grainH1715 is ruinedH7703, The newH8492 wineH8492 driesH3001 up, FreshH3323 oilH3323 3failsH535.1145Be ashamedH954, O farmersH406, WailH3213, O vinedressersH3755, For the wheatH2406 and the barleyH8184; BecauseH3588 the 6harvestH7105 of the fieldH7704 is destroyedH6.12The 7vineH1612 driesH3001 up And the figH8384 treeH8384 8failsH535; The 9pomegranateH7416, the 10palmH8558 alsoH1571, and the 1112appleH8598 treeH8598, AllH3605 the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704 dryH3001 up. IndeedH3588, 13rejoicingH8342 driesH3001 up From the sonsH1121 of menH120.

1314GirdH2296 yourselvesH2296 with sackcloth And lamentH5594, O priestsH3548; 15WailH3213, O ministersH8334 of the altarH4196! ComeH935, 16spendH3885 the nightH3885 in sackclothH8242 O ministersH8334 of my GodH430, For the grain offeringH4503 and the drinkH5262 offeringH5262 Are withheldH4513 from the houseH1004 of your GodH430.1417ConsecrateH6942 a fastH6685, ProclaimH7121 a 18solemnH6116 assemblyH6116; GatherH622 the eldersH2205 And allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776 To the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 your GodH430, And 19cryH2199 out to the LordH3068.1520AlasH162 for the dayH3117! For the 21dayH3117 of the LordH3068 is nearH7138, And it will comeH935 as 22destructionH7701 from the 23AlmightyH7706.16Has not 24foodH400 been cutH3772 offH3772 beforeH5048 our eyesH5869, GladnessH8057 and 25joyH1524 from the houseH1004 of our GodH430?17The 2627seedsH6507 shrivelH5685 underH8478 their 28clodsH4053; The storehousesH214 are desolateH8074, The barnsH4460 are tornH2040 downH2040, For the grainH1715 is driedH3001 up.18HowH4100 29the beastsH929 groanH584! The herdsH5739 of cattleH1241 wanderH943 aimlesslyH943 BecauseH3588 thereH369 is noH369 pastureH4829 for them; EvenH1571 the flocksH5739 of sheepH6629 30sufferH816.1931To You, O LordH3068, I cryH7121; For 32fireH784 has devouredH398 the pasturesH4999 of the wildernessH4057 And the flameH3852 has burnedH3857 up allH3605 the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704.20EvenH1571 the beastsH929 of the fieldH7704 3334pantH6165 for You; For the 35waterH4325 brooksH650 are driedH3001 up And fireH784 has devouredH398 the pasturesH4999 of the wildernessH4057.
