17The seeds lie shriveled beneath the clods;
the storehouses are in ruins;
the granaries are broken down,
for the grain has withered away.
18How the cattle groan!
The herds wander in confusion
because they have no pasture.
Even the flocks of sheep are suffering.
19To You, O LORD, I call,
for fire has consumed the open pastures
and flames have scorched all the trees of the field.
20Even the beasts of the field pant for You,
for the streams of water have dried up,
and fire has consumed the open pastures.
— Joel 1:17-20
