Joel 1:2-4
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
Lament over the Ruin of the Country
2 Hear this, O elders;
give ear, all inhabitants of the land!
Has such a thing happened in your days
or in the days of your ancestors?(A)
3 Tell your children of it,
and let your children tell their children,
and their children another generation.(B)
4 What the cutting locust left,
the swarming locust has eaten;
what the swarming locust left,
the hopping locust has eaten;
and what the hopping locust left,
the destroying locust has eaten.(C)
