nkjv Joel:1:5-12
nkjv@Joel:1:5 @ Awake, you drunkards, and weep; And wail, all you drinkers of wine, Because of the new wine, For it has been cut off from your mouth.
nkjv@Joel:1:6 @ For a nation has come up against My land, Strong, and without number; His teeth are the teeth of a lion, And he has the fangs of a fierce lion.
nkjv@Joel:1:7 @ He has laid waste My vine, And ruined My fig tree; He has stripped it bare and thrown it away; Its branches are made white.
nkjv@Joel:1:8 @ Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth For the husband of her youth.
nkjv@Joel:1:9 @ The grain offering and the drink offering Have been cut off from the house of the LORD; The priests mourn, who minister to the LORD.
nkjv@Joel:1:10 @ The field is wasted, The land mourns; For the grain is ruined, The new wine is dried up, The oil fails.
nkjv@Joel:1:11 @ Be ashamed, you farmers, Wail, you vinedressers, For the wheat and the barley; Because the harvest of the field has perished.
nkjv@Joel:1:12 @ The vine has dried up, And the fig tree has withered; The pomegranate tree, The palm tree also, And the apple tree-- All the trees of the field are withered; Surely joy has withered away from the sons of men.
