7 It has devastated my grapevine

and splintered my fig tree.

It has stripped off its bark and thrown it away;

its branches have turned white.

8 Grieve like a young woman dressed in sackcloth,k

mourning for the husband of her youth.

9 Grain and drink offerings have been cut offl

from the house of the Lord;

the priests, who are ministers of the Lord, mourn.m

10 The fields are destroyed;n

the land grieves;

indeed, the grain is destroyed;

the new wine is dried up;o

and the fresh oil fails.p

11 Be ashamed, you farmers,q

wail, you vinedressers,A

over the wheat and the barley,

because the harvest of the field has perished.r

12 The grapevine is dried up,s

and the fig tree is withered;

the pomegranate,t the date palm,u and the applev—

all the trees of the orchard—have withered.

Indeed, human joy has dried up.w
