Joel 1:12-14

Easy-to-Read Version

¹² The vines have become dry,
    and the fig tree is dying.
All the trees in the field—
    the pomegranate, the palm, and the apple—have withered.
    And happiness among the people has died.
¹³ Priests, put on sackcloth and cry loudly.
    Servants of the altar, cry loudly.
Servants of my God, you will sleep in sackcloth,
    because there will be no more grain and drink offerings in God’s Temple.
