Joel 1:6-8

American Standard Version

⁶ For a nation is come up upon my land, strong, and without number; his teeth are the teeth of a lion, and he hath the jaw-teeth of a lioness. ⁷ He hath laid my vine waste, and ^[a]barked my fig-tree: he hath made it clean bare, and cast it ^[b]away; the branches thereof are made white.

⁸ Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the husband of her youth.
