jub@Joel:1:1 @ The word of the LORD that went to Joel the son of Pethuel.

jub@Joel:1:2 @ Hear this, ye old men, and give ear, all ye inhabitants of the earth. Has this been in your days, or even in the days of your fathers?

jub@Joel:1:3 @ Tell your sons of it, and [let] your sons [tell] their sons, and their sons another generation.

jub@Joel:1:4 @ That which the palmerworm has left the locust has eaten; and that which the locust has left the cankerworm has eaten; and that which the cankerworm has left the caterpillar has eaten.

jub@Joel:1:5 @ 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.

jub@Joel:1:6 @ For a people has come up upon my land, strong, and without number, whose teeth [are] the teeth of a lion, and he has the molars of a [great] lion.

jub@Joel:1:7 @ He has laid my vine waste and barked my fig tree: he has made it clean bare and cast [it] away; its branches are made white.

jub@Joel:1:8 @ Lament like a young woman girded with sackcloth for the husband of her youth.

jub@Joel:1:9 @ The grain offering and the drink offering of the house of the LORD has perished; the priests, the LORD'S ministers, mourn.

jub@Joel:1:10 @ The field was destroyed, the land mourns; for the wheat was destroyed; the new wine was dried up, the oil perished.

jub@Joel:1:11 @ Be ye ashamed, O ye husbandmen; howl, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is lost.

jub@Joel:1:12 @ The vine has dried up, and the fig tree has perished; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, [even] all the trees of the field, have withered: therefore joy has withered away from the sons of men.

jub@Joel:1:13 @ Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests: howl, ye ministers of the altar: come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for the present and the drink offering is taken away from the house of your God.

jub@Joel:1:14 @ Sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly, gather the elders [and] all the inhabitants of the earth [into] the house of the LORD your God and cry unto the LORD.

jub@Joel:1:15 @ Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD [is] at hand, and it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.

jub@Joel:1:16 @ Is not the food cut off before our eyes, the joy and the gladness from the house of our God?

jub@Joel:1:17 @ The seed has rotted under their clods, the storehouses were laid desolate, the barns were destroyed for the wheat is withered.

jub@Joel:1:18 @ How the beasts groan! The herds of cattle are perplexed because they have no pasture; the flocks of sheep are condemned.

jub@Joel:1:19 @ O LORD, to thee will I cry for [the] fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and [the] flame has burned all the trees of the field.

jub@Joel:1:20 @ The beasts of the field also cry unto thee for the rivers of waters are dried up, and [the] fire has devoured the meadows of the wilderness.:
