Joel 1:10-18 The field shall be wasted, the land shall be in a miserable cause: for the corn shall be destroyed, the sweet wine shall come to confusion, and the oil utterly desolate.

MSTC⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁰ The field shall be wasted, the land shall be in a miserable cause: for the corn shall be destroyed, the sweet wine shall come to confusion, and the oil utterly desolate. ¹¹ The husbandmen and the wine gardeners shall look piteously, and make lamentation for the wheat, wine and barley; and because the harvest upon the field is so clean destroyed. ¹² The grape gatherers shall make great moan, when the vineyard and fig trees be so utterly wasted. Yea all the pomegranates, palm trees, apple trees, and the other trees of the field shall wither away. Thus the merry cheer of the children of men shall come to confusion. ¹³ Gird you, and make your moan, O ye priests: mourn ye ministers of the alter: go your way in, and sleep in sackcloth, O ye officers of my God: for the meat and drink offering shall be taken away from the house of your God. ¹⁴ Proclaim a fasting, call the congregation, gather the elders and all the inhabiters of the land together in to the house of the LORD your God, and cry unto the LORD. ¹⁵ Alas, alas for this day. And why? the day of the LORD is at hand, and cometh as a destroyer from the Almighty. ¹⁶ Shall not the meats be taken away before our eyes, the mirth also and joy from the house of our God? ¹⁷ The seed shall perish in the ground, the garners shall lie waste, the floors shall be broken down, for the corn shall be destroyed. ¹⁸ O what a fighting make the cattle? The bullocks are very evil liking, because they have no pasture: and the sheep are famished away.
