Joel 1:13-17 New King James Version (NKJV)

13. Gird yourselves and lament, you priests;Wail, you who minister before the altar;Come, lie all night in sackcloth,You who minister to my God;For the grain offering and the drink offeringAre withheld from the house of your God.

14. Consecrate a fast,Call a sacred assembly;Gather the eldersAnd all the inhabitants of the landInto the house of the Lord your God,And cry out to the Lord.

15. Alas for the day!For the day of the Lord is at hand;It shall come as destruction from the Almighty.

16. Is not the food cut off before our eyes,Joy and gladness from the house of our God?

17. The seed shrivels under the clods,Storehouses are in shambles;Barns are broken down,For the grain has withered.
