* 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 . * For a nation is come up upon my land , strong , and without number , whose teeth are the teeth of a lion , and he hath the cheek teeth of a great lion . * He hath laid my vine waste , and barked my fig tree t @#en #: he hath made it clean bare , and cast it away ; the branches thereof are made white . * Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the husband of her youth na #uwr #. * The meat offering and the drink offering is cut off from the house of the LORD ; the priests , the LORDS ministers , mourn . * The field is wasted , the land mourneth ; for the corn is wasted : the new wine is dried up , the oil languisheth . * Be ye ashamed , O ye husbandmen ; howl , O ye vinedressers , for the wheat and for the barley s @#orah #; because the harvest of the field is perished . * The vine is dried up , and the fig tree languisheth ; the pomegranate tree , the palm tree also , and the apple tree , even all the trees of the field , are withered : because joy is withered away from the sons of men .
