behold, the diseases of famine!
cFor both prophet and priest ply their trade through the land
and have no knowledge.’”

than the victims of hunger,
who wasted away, pierced
by lack of the fruits of the field.

Ezekiel 12:18-19

18 dSon of man, eeat your bread with quaking, and drink water with trembling and with anxiety. 19And say to the people of the land, Thus says the Lord God concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem in the land of Israel: fThey shall eat their bread with anxiety, gand drink water in dismay. In this way hher land will be stripped of all it contains, ion account of the violence of all those who dwell in it.

Joel 1:15-16

15 Alas for the day!
jFor the day of the Lord is near,
and as destruction from the Almighty
 Destruction sounds like the Hebrew for  Almighty
it comes.
16Is not the food cut off
before our eyes,
ljoy and gladness
from the house of our God?
