Ezekiel 14:13
13 a“Son of man, when a land sins against me bby acting faithlessly, and I stretch out my hand against it and cbreak its supply ▼▼Hebrew staff
of bread and send famine upon it, and ecut off from it man and beast, Ezekiel 14:21
21“For thus says the Lord God: How much more fwhen I send upon Jerusalem my four disastrous acts of judgment, gsword, hfamine, iwild beasts, and jpestilence, to cut off from it man and beast!Joel 1:10-11
10The fields are destroyed,kthe ground mourns,
because lthe grain is destroyed,
mthe wine dries up,
the oil languishes.
11 nBe ashamed, ▼ O tillers of the soil;
wail, O vinedressers,
for the wheat and the barley,
pbecause the harvest of the field has perished.
Joel 1:16-20
16Is not the food cut offbefore our eyes,
qjoy and gladness
from the house of our God?
17 rThe seed shrivels under the clods; ▼
▼The meaning of the Hebrew line is uncertain
the storehouses are desolate;
the granaries are torn down
because tthe grain has dried up.
18How uthe beasts groan!
The herds of cattle are perplexed
because there is no pasture for them;
even the flocks of sheep suffer. ▼
▼Or are made desolate
19 To you, wO Lord, I call.
xFor fire has devoured
the pastures of the wilderness,
yand flame has burned
all the trees of the field.
20Even the beasts of the field zpant for you
because the water brooks are dried up,
aaand fire has devoured
the pastures of the wilderness.
Amos 4:6
Israel Has Not Returned to the Lord
6 “I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities,and ablack of bread in all your places,
acyet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.
