Joel 1:16-18
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 1
16Has food not been cut off before our eyes, and Joy and rejoicing from the house of our God? 17The seeds have dried up under their shovels; The storehouses have become desolate, The grain silos are ruined, Because the grain has dried up. 18How the animals have groaned! The herds of cattle have wandered aimlessly Because there is no pasture for them; Even the flocks of sheep have suffered.King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 1
16Hasn’t the food been cut off before our eyes, joy and gladness from the house of our God? 17The seeds lie shriveled in their casings. The storehouses are in ruin, and the granaries are broken down, because the grain has withered away. 18How the animals groan! The herds of cattle wander in confusion since they have no pasture. Even the flocks of sheep and goats suffer punishment.New Living Translation
Chapter 1
16Our food disappears before our very eyes. No joyful celebrations are held in the house of our God. 17The seeds die in the parched ground, and the grain crops fail. The barns stand empty, and granaries are abandoned. 18How the animals moan with hunger! The herds of cattle wander about confused, because they have no pasture. The flocks of sheep and goats bleat in misery.English Standard Version
Chapter 1
16Is not the food cut off before our eyes, joy and gladness from the house of our God? 17 The seed shrivels under the clods; the storehouses are desolate; the granaries are torn down because the grain has dried up. 18How the beasts groan! The herds of cattle are perplexed because there is no pasture for them; even the flocks of sheep suffer.New International Version
