(A)The grain offering and the drink offering are cut off
    from the house of the Lord.
(B)The priests mourn,
    (C)the ministers of the Lord.
10 The fields are destroyed,
    (D)the ground mourns,
because (E)the grain is destroyed,
    (F)the wine dries up,
    the oil languishes.

11 (G)Be ashamed,[a] O tillers of the soil;
    wail, O vinedressers,
for the wheat and the barley,
    (H)because the harvest of the field has perished.
