Joel 1:13-15
Revised Standard Version
A Call to Repentance and Prayer
13 Gird on sackcloth and lament, O priests,
wail, O ministers of the altar.
Go in, pass the night in sackcloth,
O ministers of my God!
Because cereal offering and drink offering
are withheld from the house of your God.
14 Sanctify a fast,
call a solemn assembly.
Gather the elders
and all the inhabitants of the land
to the house of the Lord your God;
and cry to the Lord.
15 Alas for the day!
For the day of the Lord is near,
and as destruction from the Almighty it comes.
Joel 1:13-15
New International Version
A Call to Lamentation
13 Put on sackcloth,(A) you priests, and mourn;
wail, you who minister(B) before the altar.
Come, spend the night in sackcloth,
you who minister before my God;
for the grain offerings and drink offerings(C)
are withheld from the house of your God.
14 Declare a holy fast;(D)
call a sacred assembly.
Summon the elders
and all who live in the land(E)
to the house of the Lord your God,
and cry out(F) to the Lord.(G)
