15 The day of the Lord is near;the day when the Almighty brings destruction.What terror that day will bring!
16 We look on helpless as our crops are destroyed.There is no joy in the Temple of our God.
17 The seeds die in the dry earth.There is no grain to be stored,and so the empty granaries are in ruins.
18 The cattle are bellowing in distressbecause there is no pasture for them;the flocks of sheep also suffer.
19 I cry out to you, Lord,because the pastures and trees are dried up,as though a fire had burnt them.
20 Even the wild animals cry out to youbecause the streams have become dry.
