Joel 1:10-18 The field was destroyed, the land mourns; for the wheat was destroyed; the new wine was dried up, the oil perished.

EJ2000⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁰ The field was destroyed, the land mourns; for the wheat was destroyed; the new wine was dried up, the oil perished. ¹¹ Be ye ashamed, O ye husbandmen; howl, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is lost. ¹² The vine has dried up, and the fig tree has perished; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, have withered: therefore joy has withered away from the sons of men. ¹³ Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests: howl, ye ministers of the altar: come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for the present and the drink offering is taken away from the house of your God. ¹⁴ ¶ Sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly, gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the earth into the house of the LORD your God and cry unto the LORD. ¹⁵ Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty. ¹⁶ Is not the food cut off before our eyes, the joy and the gladness from the house of our God? ¹⁷ The seed has rotted under their clods, the storehouses were laid desolate, the barns were destroyed for the wheat is withered. ¹⁸ How the beasts groan! The herds of cattle are perplexed because they have no pasture; the flocks of sheep are condemned.
