Joel 1:8-10
Evangelical Heritage Version
8 Grieve like a virgin dressed in sackcloth,
who grieves for the husband[a] of her youth.
9 Grain offerings and drink offerings are cut off from the house of the Lord.
The priests are in mourning,
those who minister in the presence of the Lord.
10 The fields are devastated. The soil mourns.
The grain is devastated.
The new wine has run dry. The olive oil runs out.
