Joel 1:5-7
GOD’S WORD Translation
Joel 1:5-7
GOD’S WORD Translation
5 Wake up and cry, you drunks!
Cry loudly, you wine drinkers!
New wine has been taken away from you.
6 A strong nation attacked my land.
It has too many soldiers to count.
They have teeth like lions.
They have fangs like grown lions.
7 They destroyed my grapevines.
They ruined my fig trees.
They stripped off what they could eat,
threw the rest away, and left the branches bare.

5 Wake up, you drunkards, and weep!
Wail, all you drinkers of wine;(A)
wail because of the new wine,
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.
