Joel 1:7-9
Amplified Bible
7
It has made My vine (My people) a waste and object of horror,
And splintered and broken My fig tree.
It has stripped them completely bare and thrown them away;
Their branches have become white.(A)
8
Wail like a virgin [bride] clothed with [a]sackcloth
For the bridegroom of her youth [who has died].
9
The [daily] grain offering and the drink offering are cut off
From the house of the Lord;
The priests mourn
Who minister to the Lord.
