Joel 1:17-19

New Catholic Bible

¹⁷ The seed has shriveled under the clods;
    the storehouses are empty,
and the granaries are deserted
    because the grain has dried up.
¹⁸ How loudly the cattle groan!
    The herds of oxen are bewildered
because they have no pasture;
    even the flocks of sheep are wasting away.
¹⁹ To you, O Lord, I cry,
    for fire has consumed the open pastures
    and flames have destroyed every tree in the countryside.
