A Lament about the Day of the Lord

15 Oh, no! For the Day of the Lord approaches,
    and like destruction from the Almighty, it will come!
16 Isn’t our food supply cut off right in front of us,[a]
    along with joy and gladness from the Temple of our God?
17 Seeds shrivel within their furrows,
    the storehouses lie empty,
and granaries stand in ruins
    because the grain has withered.
