16 Our food is already gone;
there's no more celebrating
    at the temple of our God.

17 Seeds dry up in the ground;[a]
    no harvest is possible.
Our barns are in bad shape,
with no grain
    to store in them.
18 Our cattle wander aimlessly,
moaning for lack of pasture,
    and sheep are suffering.[b]
