Joel 1:8 in Context — Joel 1
6 Porque gente subió á mi tierra, fuerte y sin número; sus dientes, dientes de león, y sus muelas, de león.
7 Asoló mi vid, y descortezó mi higuera: del todo la desnudó y derribó: sus ramas quedaron blancas.
8 Llora tú como moza vestida de saco por el marido de su juventud.
9 Pereció el presente y la libación de la casa de Jehová: los sacerdotes ministros de Jehová hicieron luto.
10 El campo fué destruído, enlutóse la tierra; porque el trigo fué destruído, se secó el mosto, perdióse el aceite.
