15. Ah, the day! The day of Adonai is near! As havoc from Shaddai it will come.
16. Is food not cut off before our eyes— joy and gladness from God’s House?
17. Seed has shriveled under the dirt clod. Storehouses are desolate, granaries are torn down, for the grain has withered.
18. How the animals groan! The herds of cattle are perplexed, because they have no pasture. The flocks of sheep also suffer.
19. To You, Adonai, I cry! For fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and flame has set ablaze all the trees of the field.
20. Also beasts of the field pant toward You. For the water of wadis are dried up, and fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness.
