Joel 1:4-6
International Standard Version
4 Whatever the devouring locust left behind
the locust swarm has consumed!
Whatever the locust swarm has left behind,
the young locust[a] has consumed!
Whatever the young locust[b] has left behind,
the ravaging locust has consumed!”
A Call to Mourning
5 “Wake up, you drunkards!
Cry aloud and howl, you wine drinkers,
because your supply of new wine has been snatched from you.[c]
6 Indeed, a nation has invaded my land—
it is strong and its population is too large to count[d]—
with teeth like a lion
and fangs[e] like a lioness.
Joel 1:4-6
New International Version
