Joel 1:5-9

Joel 1:5-9

[5] Awake,  ye drunkards,  and weep;  and howl,  all ye drinkers  of wine,  because of the new wine;  for it is cut off  from your mouth.  [6] For a nation  is come up  upon my land,  strong,  and without number,  whose teeth  of a lion,  and he hath the cheek teeth  of a great lion.  [7] He hath laid  my vine  waste,  and barked  my fig tree:  he hath made it clean  and cast it away;  the branches  thereof are made white.  [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.
