bbe Joel:1:13-20
bbe@Joel:1:13 @Put haircloth round you and give yourselves to sorrow, you priests; give cries of grief, you servants of the altar: come in, and, clothed in haircloth, let the night go past, you servants of my God: for the meal offering and the drink offering have been kept back from the house of your God.
bbe@Joel:1:14 @Let a time be fixed for going without food, have a holy meeting, let the old men, even all the people of the land, come together to the house of the Lord your God, crying out to the Lord.
bbe@Joel:1:15 @Sorrow for the day! for the day of the Lord is near, and as destruction from the Ruler of all it will come.
bbe@Joel:1:16 @Is not food cut off before our eyes? joy and delight from the house of our God?
bbe@Joel:1:17 @The grains have become small and dry under the spade; the store-houses are made waste, the grain-stores are broken down; for the grain is dry and dead.
bbe@Joel:1:18 @What sounds of pain come from the beasts! the herds of cattle are at a loss because there is no grass for them; even the flocks of sheep are no longer to be seen.
bbe@Joel:1:19 @O Lord, my cry goes up to you: for fire has put an end to the grass-lands of the waste, and all the trees of the field are burned with its flame.
bbe@Joel:1:20 @The beasts of the field are turning to you with desire: for the water-streams are dry and fire has put an end to the grass-lands of the waste.
