Joel 1:8-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁸ Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the husband of her youth.

⁹ Sacrifice and libation is cut off from the house of the Lord: the priests, the Lord's ministers, have mourned:

¹⁰ The country is destroyed, the ground hath mourned: for the corn is wasted, the wine is confounded, the oil hath languished.
