Joel 1:8-14
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 1
8
Wail like a virgin clothed with sackcloth
For the groom of her youth.
9
The grain offering and the drink offering have been cut off
From the house of the
Lord
.
The priests mourn,
The ministers of the
Lord
.
10
The field is ruined,
The land mourns;
For the grain is ruined,
The new wine has dried up,
Fresh oil has failed.
11
Be ashamed, you farm workers,
Wail, you vinedressers,
For the wheat and the barley;
Because the harvest of the field is destroyed.
12
The vine has dried up
And the fig tree has withered;
The pomegranate, the palm also, and the apple tree,
All the trees of the field have dried up.
Indeed, joy has dried up
From the sons of mankind.
13
Put on
sackcloth
And mourn, you priests;
Wail, you ministers of the altar!
Come, spend the night in sackcloth,
You ministers of my God,
For the grain offering and the drink offering
Have been withheld from the house of your God.
14
Consecrate a fast,
Proclaim a solemn assembly;
Gather the elders
And
all the inhabitants of the land
To the house of the
Lord
your God,
And cry out to the
Lord
.
King James Version
Chapter 1
8
Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the husband of her youth.
9
The meat offering and the drink offering is cut off from the house of the
Lord
; the priests, the
Lord
'S ministers, mourn.
10
The field is wasted, the land mourneth; for the corn is wasted: the new wine is dried up, the oil languisheth.
11
Be ye ashamed, O ye husbandmen; howl, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is perished.
12
The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men.
13
Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests: howl, ye ministers of the altar: come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for the meat offering and the drink offering is withholden from the house of your God.
14
Sanctify ye a fast, call a solemn assembly, gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land into the house of the
Lord
your God, and cry unto the
Lord
,
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 1
8
Grieve like a young woman dressed in sackcloth,
mourning for the husband of her youth.
9
Grain and drink offerings have been cut off
from the house of the
Lord
;
the priests, who are ministers of the
Lord
, mourn.
10
The fields are destroyed;
the land grieves;
indeed, the grain is destroyed;
the new wine is dried up;
and the fresh oil fails.
11
Be ashamed, you farmers,
wail, you vinedressers,
over the wheat and the barley,
because the harvest of the field has perished.
12
The grapevine is dried up,
and the fig tree is withered;
the pomegranate, the date palm, and the apple —
all the trees of the orchard—have withered.
Indeed, human joy has dried up.
13
Dress in sackcloth and lament, you priests;
wail, you ministers of the altar.
Come and spend the night in sackcloth,
you ministers of my God,
because grain and drink offerings
are withheld from the house of your God.
14
Announce a sacred fast;
proclaim an assembly!
Gather the elders
and all the residents of the land
at the house of the
Lord
your God,
and cry out to the
Lord
.
New Living Translation
Chapter 1
8
Weep like a bride dressed in black,
mourning the death of her husband.
9
For there is no grain or wine
to offer at the Temple of the
Lord
.
So the priests are in mourning.
The ministers of the
Lord
are weeping.
10
The fields are ruined,
the land is stripped bare.
The grain is destroyed,
the grapes have shriveled,
and the olive oil is gone.
11
Despair, all you farmers!
Wail, all you vine growers!
Weep, because the wheat and barley —
all the crops of the field — are ruined.
12
The grapevines have dried up,
and the fig trees have withered.
The pomegranate trees, palm trees, and apple trees —
all the fruit trees — have dried up.
And the people’s joy has dried up with them.
13
Dress yourselves in burlap and weep, you priests!
Wail, you who serve before the altar!
Come, spend the night in burlap,
you ministers of my God.
For there is no grain or wine
to offer at the Temple of your God.
14
Announce a time of fasting;
call the people together for a solemn meeting.
Bring the leaders
and all the people of the land
into the Temple of the
Lord
your God,
and cry out to him there.

Be ashamed, O tillers of the soil;
wail, O vinedressers,
for the wheat and the barley,
because the harvest of the field has perished.

The vine dries up;
the fig tree languishes.
Pomegranate, palm, and apple,
all the trees of the field are dried up,
and gladness dries up
from the children of man.
13
Put on sackcloth and lament, O priests;
wail, O ministers of the altar.
Go in, pass the night in sackcloth,
O ministers of my God!
Because grain offering and drink offering
are withheld from the house of your God.

Consecrate a fast;
call a solemn assembly.
Gather the elders
and all the inhabitants of the land
to the house of the
Lord
your God,
