Joel 1:14-16

The Voice

¹⁴So consecrate a holy fast; call everyone together.
Gather all the elders and leaders and the rest who live in the land.
Call everyone to the temple of your God, the Eternal.
Then cry out to Him with all your heart.

¹⁵But look! It is coming!
The day of the Eternal One is near.
Destruction, not salvation,
will be the sentence from the Highest God.
¹⁶Hasn’t all our food been destroyed right before our eyes?
Haven’t joyful celebrations ceased in God’s house?
