Joel 1:18-20

Contemporary English Version

¹⁸ Our cattle wander aimlessly,
moaning for lack of pasture,
    and sheep are suffering.^[a]
19 I cry out to you, Lord.
Grasslands and forests are eaten
    by the scorching heat.
²⁰ Wild animals have no water
    because of you;
rivers and streams are dry,
    and pastures are parched.
