Isn’t the food cut off before our eyes, joy and gladness from the house of our God?
In context
14 Sanctify a fast. Call a solemn assembly. Gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land to the house of the LORD, your God, and cry to the LORD.
15 Alas for the day! For the day of the LORD is at hand, and it will come as destruction from the Almighty.
16 Isn’t the food cut off before our eyes, joy and gladness from the house of our God?
17 The seeds rot under their clods. The granaries are laid desolate. The barns are broken down, for the grain has withered.
