Joel 1:7-9

Tree of Life Version

⁷ He has turned my vine to waste
and my fig tree to splinters.
He has stripped off all the bark
    and flung it down—
its branches are left white.
⁸ Wail like a virgin dressed in sackcloth
for the husband of her youth!
⁹ Grain offering and drink offering
are cut off from the House of Adonai.
Kohanim—ministers of Adonai—mourn.
