Joel 1:16-18

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁶ Is not the meat cut off before our eyes — joy and gladness from the House of our God?

¹⁷ The seed is rotten under their clods. The storehouses are destroyed. The barns are broken down, for the grain has withered.

¹⁸ How the beasts mourn! The herds of cattle pine away, because they have no pasture. And the flocks of sheep are destroyed.
