Joel 1:12

Context

1:12 The vine has dried up;

the fig tree languishes –

the pomegranate, date, and apple 1  as well.

In fact, 2  all the trees of the field have dried up.

Indeed, the joy of the people 3  has dried up!

1 tn This Hebrew word וְתַפּוּחַ (vÿtappuakh) probably refers to the apple tree (so most English versions), but other suggestions that scholars have offered include the apricot, citron, or quince.

2 tn These words are not in the Hebrew text but are supplied in the translation for clarity.

3 tn Heb “the sons of man.”
