Revised Literal Translation
Joel 1:8-13
8Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the husband of her youth. 9The grain offering and the drink offering is cut off from the house of Yhwh; the priests, Yhwh's ministers, mourn. 10The field is wasted, the land mourneth; for the grain is wasted: the new wine is dried up, the oil languisheth. 11Be ye ashamed, O ye husbandmen; howl, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is perished. 12The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men. 13Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests: howl, ye ministers of the altar: come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for the grain offering and the drink offering is withholden from the house of your God.
