Joel 1:18-20

New International Reader's Version

¹⁸Listen to the cattle groan!
The herds wander around.
They don’t have any grass to eat.
The flocks of sheep are also suffering.

¹⁹Lord, I call out to you.
    Fire has burned up the desert grasslands.
    Flames have destroyed all the trees in the fields.
²⁰Even the wild animals cry out to you for help.
    The streams of water have dried up.
    Fire has burned up the desert grasslands.
