Joel 1:5-7

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁵ Wake up and cry, you drunks!
Cry loudly, you wine drinkers!
New wine has been taken away from you.
⁶ A strong nation attacked my land.
It has too many soldiers to count.
They have teeth like lions.
They have fangs like grown lions.
⁷ They destroyed my grapevines.
They ruined my fig trees.
They stripped off what they could eat,
threw the rest away, and left the branches bare.
