Joel 1:5-9

Wake up, you drunks, and weep! Howl you wine-drinkers, because the new wine has been suddenly taken away from your mouth!

A nation has invaded my land: powerful and too many to count. Their teeth are like lion's teeth, their fangs like those of a lioness.

It has ruined my grapevines and destroyed my fig trees, stripping them completely and reducing them to stumps, white and bare.

Mourn like a bride dressed in sackcloth, mourning the death of her husband-to-be.

Grain and wine offerings have stopped in the Temple. The priests who minister before the Lord are in mourning.
