Joel 1:10-14
New International Version
10 The fields are ruined,
the ground is dried up;(A)
the grain is destroyed,
the new wine(B) is dried up,
the olive oil fails.(C)
11 Despair, you farmers,(D)
wail, you vine growers;
grieve for the wheat and the barley,(E)
because the harvest of the field is destroyed.(F)
12 The vine is dried up
and the fig tree is withered;(G)
the pomegranate,(H) the palm and the apple[a] tree—
all the trees of the field—are dried up.(I)
Surely the people’s joy
is withered away.
A Call to Lamentation
13 Put on sackcloth,(J) you priests, and mourn;
wail, you who minister(K) before the altar.
Come, spend the night in sackcloth,
you who minister before my God;
for the grain offerings and drink offerings(L)
are withheld from the house of your God.
14 Declare a holy fast;(M)
call a sacred assembly.
Summon the elders
and all who live in the land(N)
to the house of the Lord your God,
and cry out(O) to the Lord.(P)
