Mourning for the Land

13 (A)Gird yourselves and lament, you priests;
Wail, you who minister before the altar;
Come, lie all night in sackcloth,
You who minister to my God;
For the grain offering and the drink offering
Are withheld from the house of your God.
14 (B)Consecrate a fast,
Call (C)a sacred assembly;
Gather the elders
And (D)all the inhabitants of the land
Into the house of the Lord your God,
And cry out to the Lord.

15 (E)Alas for the day!
For (F)the day of the Lord is at hand;
It shall come as destruction from the Almighty.
