9The meate offring and the drinke offering is cut off from the house of the Lord, the Priestes the Lords ministers mourne. 10The field is wasted, the lande mourneth; for the corne is wasted: the new wine is dried vp, the oyle languisheth. 11Be yee ashamed, O yee husbandmen: howle, O yee vine-dressers, for the wheate and for the barley; because the haruest of the field is perished. 12The vine is dried vp, and the figgetree languisheth, the pomegranate tree, the palme tree also and the apple tree, euen all the trees of the field are withered: because ioy is withered away from the sonnes of men. 13Gird your selues, and lament, yee Priests: howle, ye ministers of the Altar: come, lie all night in sackecloth, ye ministers of my God: for the meat offering and the drinke offering is withholden from the house of your God.
