10 Barren fields mourn;
grain, grapes, and olives
    are scorched and shriveled.

11 Mourn for our farms
    and our vineyards!
There's no wheat or barley
    growing in our fields.
12 Grapevines have dried up
and so has every tree—
    figs and pomegranates,[a]
    date palms and apples.
All happiness has faded away.
