6 For H3588 CONJ a nation H1471 is come up H5927 upon H5921 PREP my land H776 , strong H6099 , and without H369 W-NPAR number H4557 NMS , whose teeth H8127 CMD-3MS are the teeth H8127 of a lion H738 NMS , and he hath the cheek teeth H4973 of a great lion H3833 NMS .
7 He hath laid H7760 VQQ3MS my vine H1612 waste H8047 , and barked H7111 my fig tree H8384 : he hath made it clean bare H2834 , and cast it away H7993 ; the branches H8299 thereof are made white H3835 .
8 Lament H421 like a virgin H1330 girded H2296 with sackcloth H8242 NMS for H5921 PREP the husband H1167 CMS of her youth H5271 .
9 The meat offering H4503 NFS and the drink offering H5262 is cut off H3772 from the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 EDS ; the priests H3548 , the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS \'s ministers H8334 , mourn H56 .
10 The field H7704 is wasted H7703 , the land H127 mourneth H56 ; for H3588 CONJ the corn H1715 is wasted H7703 : the new wine H8492 is dried up H3001 , the oil H3323 languisheth H535 .
11 Be ye ashamed H954 , O ye husbandmen H406 ; howl H3213 , O ye vinedressers H3755 , for H5921 PREP the wheat H2406 NFS and for H5921 PREP the barley H8184 NFS ; because H3588 CONJ the harvest H7105 of the field H7704 is perished H6 VQQ3MS .
12 The vine H1612 is dried up H3001 , and the fig tree H8384 languisheth H535 ; the pomegranate tree H7416 , the palm tree H8558 also H1571 CONJ , and the apple tree H8598 , even all H3605 NMS the trees H6086 CMP of the field H7704 D-NMS , are withered H3001 : because H3588 CONJ joy H8342 is withered away H3001 from H4480 PREP the sons H1121 of men H120 .
13 Gird H2296 yourselves , and lament H5594 , ye priests H3548 : howl H3213 , ye ministers H8334 of the altar H4196 NMS : come H935 , lie all night H3885 in sackcloth H8242 , ye ministers H8334 of my God H430 : for H3588 CONJ the meat offering H4503 NFS and the drink offering H5262 is withheld H4513 from the house H1004 of your God H430 .
14 Sanctify H6942 ye a fast H6685 NMS , call H7121 a solemn assembly H6116 , gather H622 the elders H2205 AMP and all H3605 NMS the inhabitants H3427 of the land H776 D-GFS into the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS your God H430 , and cry H2199 unto H413 PREP the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS ,
15 Alas H162 for the day H3117 NUM-MS ! for H3588 CONJ the day H3117 NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS is at hand H7138 AMS , and as a destruction H7701 from the Almighty H7706 shall it come H935 VQY3MS .

17 The seed H6507 is rotten H5685 under H8478 NMS their clods H4053 , the garners H214 are laid desolate H8074 VNQ3MP , the barns H4460 are broken down H2040 ; for H3588 CONJ the corn H1715 is withered H3001 .
18 How H4100 IPRO do the beasts H929 groan H584 ! the herds H5739 of cattle H1241 are perplexed H943 , because H3588 CONJ they have no H369 NPAR pasture H4829 ; yea H1571 CONJ , the flocks H5739 of sheep H6629 are made desolate H816 .
19 O LORD H3068 EDS , to H413 PREP-2MS thee will I cry H7121 : for H3588 CONJ the fire H784 CMS hath devoured H398 the pastures H4999 of the wilderness H4057 NMS , and the flame H3852 hath burned H3857 all H3605 NMS the trees H6086 CMP of the field H7704 D-NMS .
20 The beasts H929 of the field H7704 cry H6165 also H1571 CONJ unto H413 PREP-2MS thee : for H3588 CONJ the rivers H650 CMP of waters H4325 NMD are dried up H3001 , and the fire H784 W-NMS hath devoured H398 VQQ3FS the pastures H4999 of the wilderness H4057 D-NMS .
