Joel 1:13-15
Living Bible
13 O priests, robe yourselves in sackcloth. O ministers of my God, lie all night before the altar, weeping. For there are no more offerings of grain and wine for you. 14 Announce a fast; call a solemn meeting. Gather the elders and all the people into the Temple of the Lord your God, and weep before him there.
15 Alas, this terrible day of punishment[a] is on the way. Destruction from the Almighty is almost here!

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)
