“I also withheld(A) rain from you
    when the harvest was still three months away.

    but withheld it from another.(B)
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,”

    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.
