I also withheld the rain from you(A)
while there were still three months until harvest.
I sent rain on one city
but no rain on another.(B)
One field received rain
while a field with no rain withered.(C)
Two or three cities staggered
to another city to drink water(D)
but were not satisfied,(E)
yet you did not return(F) to me.
This is the Lord’s declaration.

I struck you with blight and mildew;(G)
the locust devoured(H)
your many gardens and vineyards,
your fig trees and olive trees,(I)
yet you did not return to me.(J)
This is the Lord’s declaration.

    when the harvest was still three months away.

One field had rain;
    another had none and dried up.
People staggered from town to town for water(C)
    but did not get enough(D) to drink,
    yet you have not returned(E) to me,”
declares the Lord.(F)

“Many times I struck your gardens and vineyards,
    destroying them with blight and mildew.(G)
Locusts(H) devoured your fig and olive trees,(I)
    yet you have not returned(J) to me,”
declares the Lord.
