Joel 1:4-20

4WhatH3499 the 1gnawingH1501 locustH1501 has leftH3499, the swarmingH697 locustH697 has eatenH398; And whatH3499 the 2swarmingH697 locustH697 has leftH3499, the creepingH3218 locustH3218 has eatenH398; And whatH3499 the creepingH3218 locustH3218 has leftH3499, the 3strippingH2625 locustH2625 has eatenH398.5AwakeH7019, 4drunkardsH7910, and weepH1058; And wailH3213, allH3605 you wineH3196 drinkersH8354, On accountH5921 of the sweetH6071 wineH6071 That is 5cutH3772 offH3772 from your mouthH6310.6For a 6nationH1471 has 7invadedH5927 my landH776, MightyH6099 and withoutH369 numberH4557; 8Its teethH8127 are the teethH8127 of a lionH743, And it has the fangsH4973 of a lionessH3833.7It has 9madeH7760 my vineH1612 a wasteH8047 And my figH8384 treeH8384 10splintersH7111. It has strippedH2834 them bareH2834 and castH7993 them awayH7993; Their branchesH8299 have becomeH3835 whiteH3835.

811WailH421 like a virginH1330 12girdedH2296 with sackclothH8242 For the bridegroomH1167 of her youthH5271.9The 13grain offeringH4503 and the drinkH5262 offeringH5262 are cutH3772 offH3772 From the houseH1004 of the LordH3068. The 14priestsH3548 mournH56, The ministersH8334 of the LordH3068.10The fieldH7704 is 15ruinedH7703, 16The landH127 mournsH56; For the grainH1715 is ruinedH7703, The newH8492 wineH8492 driesH3001 up, FreshH3323 oilH3323 17failsH535.111819Be ashamedH954, O farmersH406, WailH3213, O vinedressersH3755, For the wheatH2406 and the barleyH8184; BecauseH3588 the 20harvestH7105 of the fieldH7704 is destroyedH6.12The 21vineH1612 driesH3001 up And the figH8384 treeH8384 22failsH535; The 23pomegranateH7416, the 24palmH8558 alsoH1571, and the 2526appleH8598 treeH8598, AllH3605 the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704 dryH3001 up. IndeedH3588, 27rejoicingH8342 driesH3001 up From the sonsH1121 of menH120.

1328GirdH2296 yourselvesH2296 with sackcloth And lamentH5594, O priestsH3548; 29WailH3213, O ministersH8334 of the altarH4196! ComeH935, 30spendH3885 the nightH3885 in sackclothH8242 O ministersH8334 of my GodH430, For the grain offeringH4503 and the drinkH5262 offeringH5262 Are withheldH4513 from the houseH1004 of your GodH430.1431ConsecrateH6942 a fastH6685, ProclaimH7121 a 32solemnH6116 assemblyH6116; GatherH622 the eldersH2205 And allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776 To the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 your GodH430, And 33cryH2199 out to the LordH3068.1534AlasH162 for the dayH3117! For the 35dayH3117 of the LordH3068 is nearH7138, And it will comeH935 as 36destructionH7701 from the 37AlmightyH7706.16Has not 38foodH400 been cutH3772 offH3772 beforeH5048 our eyesH5869, GladnessH8057 and 39joyH1524 from the houseH1004 of our GodH430?17The 4041seedsH6507 shrivelH5685 underH8478 their 42clodsH4053; The storehousesH214 are desolateH8074, The barnsH4460 are tornH2040 downH2040, For the grainH1715 is driedH3001 up.18HowH4100 43the beastsH929 groanH584! The herdsH5739 of cattleH1241 wanderH943 aimlesslyH943 BecauseH3588 thereH369 is noH369 pastureH4829 for them; EvenH1571 the flocksH5739 of sheepH6629 44sufferH816.1945To You, O LordH3068, I cryH7121; For 46fireH784 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 4748pantH6165 for You; For the 49waterH4325 brooksH650 are driedH3001 up And fireH784 has devouredH398 the pasturesH4999 of the wildernessH4057.
