5 Awake, ye drunkards, and weep; and howl, all ye drinkers of wine, because of the new wine; for it is cut off from your mouth.

Joel 1:4-6
New King James Version
4 (A)What the chewing [a]locust left, the (B)swarming locust has eaten;
What the swarming locust left, the crawling locust has eaten;
And what the crawling locust left, the consuming locust has eaten.
5 Awake, you (C)drunkards, and weep;
And wail, all you drinkers of wine,
Because of the new wine,
(D)For it has been cut off from your mouth.
6 For (E)a nation has come up against My land,
Strong, and without number;
(F)His teeth are the teeth of a lion,
And he has the fangs of a [b]fierce lion.
