17 The grain shrivels under the shovels;the barns are empty.The granaries are in ruinbecause the grain has dried up.
18 How the animals groan!Herds of cattle are in distressbecause there is no pasture for them;even the flocks of sheep pant.
19 To you, Lord, I cry,for fire has completely destroyedthe pastures of the wilderness;and flames have burnedall the trees of the field.
20 Even the field’s wild animals cry to youbecause the streams have dried up;the fire has completely destroyedthe meadows of the wilderness.
