Joel 1:17

---

← Joel 1:16	Joel 1:17 (KJV)	Joel 1:18 →
Is not the meat cut off before our eyes, [yea], joy and gladness from the house of our God?	The seed is rotten under their clods, the garners are laid desolate, the barns are broken down; for the corn is withered.	How do the beasts groan! the herds of cattle are perplexed, because they have no pasture; yea, the flocks of sheep are made desolate.
