Joel 1:13-15
The Voice
13 You priests, throw off your fine robes. Dress in sackcloth and grieve.
Wail, you servants at the altar.
Come into the temple and spend all night in your sackcloth,
you ministers of my God,
Because no one brings grain and wine
to offer at your God’s house these days.
14 So 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.
15 But look! It is coming!
The day of the Eternal One is near.
Destruction, not salvation,
will be the sentence from the Highest God.

A Call to Lamentation
13 Put on sackcloth,(A) you priests, and mourn;
wail, you who minister(B) before the altar.
Come, spend the night in sackcloth,
you who minister before my God;
for the grain offerings and drink offerings(C)
are withheld from the house of your God.
14 Declare a holy fast;(D)
call a sacred assembly.
Summon the elders
and all who live in the land(E)
to the house of the Lord your God,
and cry out(F) to the Lord.(G)
