Joel 1:4-6
New American Standard Bible
4 What the (A)gnawing locust has left, the [a]swarming locust has eaten;
And what the (B)swarming locust has left, the creeping locust has eaten;
And what the creeping locust has left, the (C)stripping locust has eaten.
5 Awake, (D)you heavy drinkers, and weep;
And wail, all you wine drinkers,
Because of the sweet wine,
For it has been (E)eliminated from your mouth.
6 For a (F)nation has [b]invaded my land,
Mighty and without number;
(G)Its teeth are the teeth of a lion,
And it has the jaws of a lioness.
Joel 1:4-6
