Joel 1:4-7

4 What the ^agnawing locust has left, the ^{▼▼Or migratory}swarming locust has eaten;
And what the ^cswarming locust has left, the creeping locust has eaten;
And what the creeping locust has left, the ^dstripping locust has eaten.
5 Awake, ^eyou heavy drinkers, and weep;
And wail, all you wine drinkers,
Because of the sweet wine,
For it has been ^feliminated from your mouth.
6 For a ^gnation has ^{▼▼Lit gone up against}invaded my land,
Mighty and without number;
ⁱIts teeth are the teeth of a lion,
And it has the jaws of a lioness.
7 It has ^jmade my vine a waste
And my fig tree a stump.
It has stripped them bare and hurled them away;
Their branches have become white.
