Joel 1:13 in Context — Joel 1

11 Envergonhai-vos, trabalhadores; gemei, plantadores de vinhas, pelo trigo e pela a cevada; porque a colheita do campo pereceu.

12 A vide se secou, a figueira definhou, assim como a romeira, a palmeira, e a macieira; todas as árvores do campo se secaram; por isso a alegria se secou entre os filhos dos homens.

13 Cingi-vos e lamentai, sacerdotes; gemei, ministros do altar; vinde e deitai em sacos, trabalhadores de meu Deus; porque as ofertas de alimentos e de bebidas foram tiradas da casa de vosso Deus.

14 Santificai um jejum; convocai uma reunião solene; congregai os anciãos e todos os moradores desta terra na casa do SENHOR vosso Deus, e clamai ao SENHOR.

15 Ai daquele dia! Porque perto está o dia do SENHOR, e virá do Todo-Poderoso como destruição.
