Joel 1:5-12

5Awake, you drunkards, and weep; And wail, all you drinkers of wine, Because of the new wine, For it has been cut off from your mouth.

6For a nation has come up against My land, Strong, and without number; His teeth are the teeth of a lion, And he has the fangs of a fierce lion.

7He has laid waste My vine, And ruined My fig tree; He has stripped it bare and thrown it away; Its branches are made white.

8Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth For the husband of her youth.

9The grain offering and the drink offering Have been cut off from the house of the Lord; The priests mourn, who minister to the Lord.

10The field is wasted, The land mourns; For the grain is ruined, The new wine is dried up, The oil fails.

11Be ashamed, you farmers, Wail, you vinedressers, For the wheat and the barley; Because the harvest of the field has perished.

12The vine has dried up, And the fig tree has withered; The pomegranate tree, The palm tree also, And the apple tree— All the trees of the field are withered; Surely joy has withered away from the sons of men.
