Joel 1:8
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Wail like a virgin dressed in sackcloth, grieving for the husband of her youth.
In context
6 For a nation has invaded My land, powerful and without number; its teeth are the teeth of a lion, and its fangs are the fangs of a lioness.
7 It has laid waste My grapevine and splintered My fig tree. It has stripped off the bark and thrown it away; the branches have turned white.
8 Wail like a virgin dressed in sackcloth, grieving for the husband of her youth.
9 Grain and drink offerings have been cut off from the house of the LORD; the priests are in mourning, those who minister before the LORD.
10 The field is ruined; the land mourns. For the grain is destroyed, the new wine is dried up, and the oil fails.
