Joel 1:18-20
New American Standard Bible
18 How (A)the animals have groaned!
The herds of cattle have wandered aimlessly
Because there is no pasture for them;
Even the flocks of sheep have [a]suffered.
19 (B)To You, Lord, I cry out;
For (C)fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness,
And the flame has burned up all the trees of the field.
20 Even the animals of the field [b](D)pant for You;
For the (E)stream beds of water are dried up,
And fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness.
