Joel 1:11-13
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

11 The husbandmen are ashamed, the vinedressers have howled for the wheat, and for the barley, because the harvest of the field is perished.

12 The vineyard is confounded, and the fig tree hath languished: the pomegranate tree, and the palm tree, and the apple tree, and all the trees of the field are withered: because joy is withdrawn from the children of men.

13 Gird yourselves, and lament, O ye priests, howl, ye ministers of the altars: go in, lie in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: because sacrifice and libation is cut off from the house of your God.

Joel 1:11-13
New International Version

11 Despair, you farmers,(A)
    wail, you vine growers;
grieve for the wheat and the barley,(B)
    because the harvest of the field is destroyed.(C)
12 The vine is dried up
    and the fig tree is withered;(D)
the pomegranate,(E) the palm and the apple[a] tree—
    all the trees of the field—are dried up.(F)
Surely the people’s joy
    is withered away.

A Call to Lamentation

13 Put on sackcloth,(G) you priests, and mourn;
    wail, you who minister(H) before the altar.
Come, spend the night in sackcloth,
    you who minister before my God;
for the grain offerings and drink offerings(I)
    are withheld from the house of your God.
