Joel 1:5-7
Common English Bible
5 Wake up, you who drink too much, and weep.
Scream over the sweet wine,
all you wine drinkers,
because it is snatched from your mouth;
6 because a nation, powerful and beyond number,
has invaded my land.
Its teeth are like lions’ teeth;
its fangs are like those of a lioness.
7 It has destroyed my vines,
splintered my fig trees,
stripped off their bark and thrown it down;
their branches have turned white.
Joel 1:5-7
New International Version

for it has been snatched(B) from your lips.
6 A nation has invaded my land,
a mighty army without number;(C)
it has the teeth(D) of a lion,
the fangs of a lioness.
7 It has laid waste(E) my vines
and ruined my fig trees.(F)
It has stripped off their bark
and thrown it away,
leaving their branches white.
