Joel 1:16-18
New American Standard Bible 1995
16 Has not (A)food been cut off before our eyes,
Gladness and (B)joy from the house of our God?
17 The [a](C)seeds shrivel under their [b]clods;
The storehouses are desolate,
The barns are torn down,
For the grain is dried up.
18 How (D)the beasts groan!
The herds of cattle wander aimlessly
Because there is no pasture for them;
Even the flocks of sheep [c]suffer.
Joel 1:16-18
New International Version
16 Has not the food been cut off(A)
before our very eyes—
joy and gladness(B)
from the house of our God?(C)
17 The seeds are shriveled
beneath the clods.[a](D)
The storehouses are in ruins,
the granaries have been broken down,
for the grain has dried up.
18 How the cattle moan!
The herds mill about
because they have no pasture;(E)
even the flocks of sheep are suffering.(F)
