Joel 1:16-18

New Life Version

¹⁶ Do you see how our food has been taken from us? Has not happiness and joy been cut off from the house of our God? ¹⁷ The seeds dry up under the ground. The store-houses are laid waste. The buildings where the grain was kept are torn down, for the grain is destroyed. ¹⁸ How the animals cry inside themselves! The cattle go from place to place because there is no food for them. Even the flocks of sheep suffer.
