Joel 1:16-18
Lexham English Bible
16 Is not food cut off
before our eyes,
from the house of our God,
joy and gladness?
17 The seeds shrivel under their clods;
the storehouses are desolate.
The grain storage places are destroyed
because grain has dried out.
18 How the beasts[a] groan;
the herds of cattle wander around
because there is no pasture for them;
the flocks of sheep are in distress.
