Joel 1:17 in Context — Joel 1

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

16 Por acaso não foi tirado o alimento de diante de nossos olhos, a alegria e o prazer da casa de nosso Deus?

17 As sementes se apodreceram debaixo de seus torrões, os celeiros foram assolados, os depósitos foram derrubados; porque o trigo se secou.

18 Como geme o gado! As manadas dos vacas estão confusas, porque não têm pasto! Os rebanhos das ovelhas estão desolados.

19 A ti, ó SENHOR, eu clamo; porque o fogo consumiu os pastos do deserto, e chama incendiou todas as árvores do campo.
