13GirdH2296 yourselves, and lamentH5594, ye priestsH3548: wailH3213, ye ministersH8334 of the altarH4196: comeH935, lie all nightH3885 in sackclothH8242, ye ministersH8334 of my GodH430: for the meat offeringH4503 and the drink offeringH5262 is withheldH4513 from the houseH1004 of your GodH430.

14SanctifyH6942 ye a fastH6685, callH7121 a solemn assemblyH6116, gatherH622 the eldersH2205 and all the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776 into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430, and cryH2199 to the LORDH3068,1 15AlasH162 for the dayH3117! for the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is at handH7138, and as a destructionH7701 from the AlmightyH7706 shall it comeH935. 16Is not the foodH400 cut offH3772 before our eyesH5869, and joyH8057 and gladnessH1524 from the houseH1004 of our GodH430? 17The seedH6507 hath perishedH5685 under their clodsH4053, the storehousesH214 are laid desolateH8074, the barnsH4460 are broken downH2040; for the grainH1715 is witheredH3001.2 18How do the beastsH929 groanH584! the herdsH5739 of cattleH1241 are perplexedH943, because they have no pastureH4829; yea, the flocksH5739 of sheepH6629 are made desolateH816.
