Joel 1:4

What the gnawing locust has left, the swarming locust has eaten; And what the swarming locust has left, the creeping locust has eaten; And what the creeping locust has left, the stripping locust has eaten.

Joel 1:5

Awake, you heavy drinkers, and weep; And wail, all you wine drinkers, Because of the sweet wine, For it has been eliminated from your mouth.

Joel 1:6

For a nation has invaded my land, Mighty and without number; Its teeth are the teeth of a lion, And it has the jaws of a lioness.

Joel 1:7

It has made my vine a waste And my fig tree a stump. It has stripped them bare and hurled them away; Their branches have become white.

Joel 1:8

Wail like a virgin clothed with sackcloth For the groom of her youth.
