14 Sanctify|strong="H6942" a|strong="H3068" fast|strong="H6685", call|strong="H7121" a|strong="H3068" solemn|strong="H6116" assembly|strong="H6116", gather the|strong="H3605" old|strong="H2205" men|strong="H2205" and all|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" inhabitants|strong="H3427" of|strong="H1004" the|strong="H3605" land unto|strong="H3068" the|strong="H3605" house|strong="H1004" of|strong="H1004" Jehovah|strong="H3068" your|strong="H3068" God|strong="H3068", and|strong="H3068" cry|strong="H7121" unto|strong="H3068" Jehovah|strong="H3068".
15 Alas for|strong="H3588" the|strong="H3588" day|strong="H3117"! for|strong="H3588" the|strong="H3588" day|strong="H3117" of|strong="H3068" Jehovah|strong="H3068" is|strong="H3068" at|strong="H3068" hand|strong="H7138", and|strong="H3068" as|strong="H3117" destruction|strong="H7701" from|strong="H3117" the|strong="H3588" Almighty|strong="H7706" shall|strong="H3068" it|strong="H3588" come.
16 Is|strong="H1004" not|strong="H3808" the|strong="H3772" food|strong="H1004" cut|strong="H3772" off|strong="H3772" before|strong="H5048" our|strong="H5048" eyes|strong="H5869", yea, joy|strong="H8057" and|strong="H1004" gladness|strong="H8057" from|strong="H3772" the|strong="H3772" house|strong="H1004" of|strong="H1004" our|strong="H5048" God|strong="H3808"?
17 The|strong="H3588" seeds|strong="H6507" rot under|strong="H8478" their|strong="H3588" clods|strong="H4053"; the|strong="H3588" garners are|strong="H8074" laid|strong="H8074" desolate|strong="H8074", the|strong="H3588" barns|strong="H4460" are|strong="H8074" broken|strong="H2040" down|strong="H2040"; for|strong="H3588" the|strong="H3588" grain|strong="H1715" is|strong="H1715" withered|strong="H3001".
18 How|strong="H4100" do|strong="H4100" the|strong="H3588" beasts groan! the|strong="H3588" herds|strong="H1241" of|strong="H6629" cattle|strong="H1241" are|strong="H1992" perplexed, because|strong="H3588" they|strong="H1992" have|strong="H1571" no pasture|strong="H4829"; yea|strong="H3588", the|strong="H3588" flocks|strong="H6629" of|strong="H6629" sheep|strong="H6629" are|strong="H1992" made|strong="H1571" desolate.
19 O|strong="H3068" Jehovah|strong="H3068", to|strong="H3068" thee do|strong="H3068" I|strong="H3588" cry|strong="H7121"; for|strong="H3588" the|strong="H3605" fire|strong="H3857" hath|strong="H3068" devoured the|strong="H3605" pastures|strong="H4999" of|strong="H3068" the|strong="H3605" wilderness|strong="H4057", and|strong="H3068" the|strong="H3605" flame|strong="H3852" hath|strong="H3068" burned|strong="H3857" all|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" trees|strong="H6086" of|strong="H3068" the|strong="H3605" field|strong="H7704".
