all ye inhabitants

Hath this been in your days
<03117>_,

<01>_?
Tell
<05608> (8761)

ye drunkards

and howl
<03213> (8685)_,
all ye drinkers

For a nation
<01471>
is come up
<05927> (8804)
upon my land
<0776>_,
strong
<06099>_,
and without number
<04557>_,

<02834> (8800)
bare
<02834> (8804)_,
and cast [it] away
<07993> (8689)_;
the branches

<03835> (8689)_.
{barked...: Heb. laid my fig tree for a barking}
Lament
<0421> (8798)
like a virgin
<01330>
girded
<02296> (8803)
with sackcloth
<08242>
for the husband
<01167>
of her youth
<05271>_.
The meat offering
<04503>
and the drink offering
<05262>
is cut off
<03772> (8717)
from the house
<01004>
of the LORD

the priests
<03548>_,
the LORD'S
<03068>
ministers
<08334> (8764)_,
mourn
<056> (8804)_.
The field
<07704>
is wasted
<07703> (8795)_,
the land
<0127>
mourneth
<056> (8804)_;
for the corn
<01715>
is wasted
<07703> (8795)_:

<08492>
is dried up
<03001> (8689)_,
the oil
<03323>
languisheth
<0535> (8797)_.
Be ye ashamed
<03001> (8685)_,
O ye husbandmen
<0406>_;
howl
<03213> (8685)_,
O ye vinedressers
<03755>_,
for the wheat
<02406>
and for the barley
<08184>_;
because the harvest
<07105>
of the field
<07704>
is perished
<06> (8804)_.
The vine
<01612>
is dried up
<03001> (8689)_,
and the fig tree
<08384>
languisheth
<0535> (8797)_;
the pomegranate
<07416>
tree, the palm tree
<08558>
also, and the apple tree
<08598>_,
[even] all the trees
<06086>
of the field
<07704>_,
are withered
<03001> (8804)_:
because joy
<08342>
is withered away
<03001> (8689)
from the sons
<01121>
of men
<0120>_.
