⁷ And I also withheld the rain from you
    when there were still three months to the harvest;
I would send rain on one city
    and send no rain on another city;
one field would be rained upon,
    and the field on which it did not rain withered;
⁸ so two or three towns wandered to one town
    to drink water and were not satisfied;
yet you did not return to me,
            says the Lord.^(A)

⁹ I struck you with blight and mildew;
    I laid waste^[a] your gardens and your vineyards;
    the locust devoured your fig trees and your olive trees;
yet you did not return to me,
            says the Lord.^(B)
