Nothing’s Going On in the Place of Worship

13–14And also you priests,

put on your robes and join the outcry.

You who lead people in worship,

lead them in lament.

Spend the night dressed in gunnysacks,

you servants of my God.

Nothing’s going on in the place of worship,

no offerings, no prayers—nothing.
