23 Rejoice, you people of Jerusalem!

For the rain he sends demonstrates his faithfulness.
Once more the autumn rains will come,
as well as the rains of spring.
Joel 1:10-18
New Living Translation
Joel 1:10-18
New Living Translation
10 The fields are ruined,
the land is stripped bare.
The grain is destroyed,
the grapes have shriveled,
and the olive oil is gone.
11 Despair, all you farmers!
Wail, all you vine growers!
Weep, because the wheat and barley—
all the crops of the field—are ruined.
12 The grapevines have dried up,
and the fig trees have withered.
The pomegranate trees, palm trees, and apple trees—
all the fruit trees—have dried up.
And the people’s joy has dried up with them.
13 Dress yourselves in burlap and weep, you priests!
Wail, you who serve before the altar!
Come, spend the night in burlap,
you ministers of my God.
For there is no grain or wine
to offer at the Temple of your God.
14 Announce a time of fasting;
call the people together for a solemn meeting.
Bring the leaders
and all the people of the land
into the Temple of the Lord your God,
and cry out to him there.
15 The day of the Lord is near,
the day when destruction comes from the Almighty.
How terrible that day will be!
16 Our food disappears before our very eyes.
No joyful celebrations are held in the house of our God.
17 The seeds die in the parched ground,
and the grain crops fail.
The barns stand empty,
and granaries are abandoned.
18 How the animals moan with hunger!
The herds of cattle wander about confused,
because they have no pasture.
The flocks of sheep and goats bleat in misery.
Joel 1:10-18
New International Version
Joel 1:10-18
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)
15 Alas for that(Q) day!
For the day of the Lord(R) is near;
it will come like destruction from the Almighty.[b](S)
16 Has not the food been cut off(T)
before our very eyes—
joy and gladness(U)
from the house of our God?(V)
17 The seeds are shriveled
beneath the clods.[c](W)
The storehouses are in ruins,
the granaries have been broken down,
for the grain has dried up.
18 How the cattle moan!
The herds mill about
because they have no pasture;(X)
even the flocks of sheep are suffering.(Y)
