Joel 1:13-20

Gird
<02296> (8798)
yourselves, and lament
<05594> (8798)_,
ye priests
<03548>_:
howl
<03213> (8685)_,
ye ministers
<08334> (8764)
of the altar
<04196>_:
come
<0935> (8798)_,
lie all night
<03885> (8798)
in sackcloth
<08242>_,
ye ministers
<08334> (8764)
of my God
<0430>_:
for the meat offering
<04503>
and the drink offering
<05262>
is withholden
<04513> (8738)
from the house
<01004>
of your God
<0430>_.
Sanctify
<06942> (8761)
ye a fast
<06685>_,
call
<07121> (8798)
a solemn assembly
<06116>_,
gather
<0622> (8798)
the elders
<02205>
[and] all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the land
<0776>
[into] the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_,
and cry
<02199> (8798)
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
{solemn...: or, day of restraint}
Alas
<0162>
for the day
<03117>_!
for the day
<03117>
of the LORD
<03068>
[is] at hand
<07138>_,
and as a destruction
<07701>
from the Almighty
<07706>
shall it come
<0935> (8799)_.
Is not the meat
<0400>
cut off
<03772> (8738)
before our eyes
<05869>_,
[yea], joy
<08057>
and gladness
<01524>
from the house
<01004>
of our God
<0430>_?
The seed
<06507>
is rotten
<05685> (8804)
under their clods
<04053>_,
the garners
<0214>
are laid desolate
<08074> (8738)_,
the barns
<04460>
are broken down
<02040> (8738)_;
for the corn
<01715>
is withered
<03001> (8689)_.
{seed: Heb. grains}
How do the beasts
<0929>
groan
<0584> (8737)_!
the herds
<05739>
of cattle
<01241>
are perplexed
<0943> (8738)_,
because they have no pasture
<04829>_;
yea, the flocks
<05739>
of sheep
<06629>
are made desolate
<0816> (8738)_.
O LORD
<03068>_,
to thee will I cry
<07121> (8799)_:
for the fire
<0784>
hath devoured
<0398> (8804)
the pastures
<04999>
of the wilderness
<04057>_,
and the flame
<03852>
hath burned
<03857> (8765)
all the trees
<06086>
of the field
<07704>_.
{pastures: or, habitations}
The beasts
<0929>
of the field
<07704>
cry
<06165> (8799)
also unto thee: for the rivers
<0650>
of waters
<04325>
are dried up
<03001> (8804)_,
and the fire
<0784>
hath devoured
<0398> (8804)
the pastures
<04999>
of the wilderness
<04057>_.
