1 The word of the Lord which came to Joel the son of Pethuel.
1 PALABRA de Jehová que fué á Joel hijo de Pethuel.
2 Hear these [words], ye elders, and hearken all ye that inhabit the land. Have such things happened in your days, or in the days of your fathers?
2 Oid esto, viejos, y escuchad, todos los moradores de la tierra. ¿Ha acontecido esto en vuestros días, ó en los días de vuestros padres?
3 Tell your children concerning them, and [let] your children [tell] their children, and their children another generation.
3 De esto contaréis á vuestros hijos, y vuestros hijos á sus hijos, y sus hijos á la otra generación.
4 The leavings of the caterpillar has the locust eaten, and the leavings of the locust has the palmerworm eaten, and the leavings of the palmerworm has the cankerworm eaten.
4 Lo que quedó de la oruga comió la langosta, y lo que quedó de la langosta comió el pulgón; y el revoltón comió lo que del pulgón había quedado.
5 Awake, ye drunkards, from your wine, and weep: mourn, all ye that drink wine to drunkenness: for joy and gladness are removed from your mouth.
5 Despertad, borrachos, y llorad; aullad todos los que bebéis vino, á causa del mosto, porque os es quitado de vuestra boca.
6 For a strong and innumerable nation is come up against my land, their teeth are lion’s teeth, and their back teeth those of a [lion’s] whelp.
6 Porque gente subió á mi tierra, fuerte y sin número; sus dientes, dientes de león, y sus muelas, de león.
7 He has ruined my vine, and utterly broken my fig trees: he has utterly searched [my vine], and cast it down; he has peeled its branches.
7 Asoló mi vid, y descortezó mi higuera: del todo la desnudó y derribó: sus ramas quedaron blancas.
8 Lament to me more than a virgin girded with sackcloth for the husband of her youth.
8 Llora tú como moza vestida de saco por el marido de su juventud.
9 The meat offering and drink offering are removed from the house of the Lord: mourn, ye priests that serve at the altar of the Lord.
9 Pereció el presente y la libación de la casa de Jehová: los sacerdotes ministros de Jehová hicieron luto.
10 For the plains languish: let the land mourn, for the corn languishes; the wine is dried up, the oil becomes scarce;
10 El campo fué destruído, enlutóse la tierra; porque el trigo fué destruído, se secó el mosto, perdióse el aceite.
11 the husbandmen are consumed: mourn your property on account of the wheat and barley; for the harvest has perished from off the field.
11 Confundíos, labradores, aullad, viñeros, por el trigo y la cebada; porque se perdió la mies del campo.
12 The vine is dried up, and the fig trees are become few; the pomegranate, and palm tree, and apple, and all the trees of the field are dried up: for the sons of men have abolished joy.
12 Secóse la vid, y pereció la higuera, el granado también, la palma, y el manzano; secáronse todos los árboles del campo; por lo cual se secó el gozo de los hijos de los hombres.
13 Gird yourselves [with sackcloth], and lament, ye priests: mourn, ye that serve at the altar: go in, sleep in sackcloth, ye that minister to God: for the meat offering and drink offering are withheld from the house of your God.
13 Ceñíos y lamentad, sacerdotes; aullad, ministros del altar; venid, dormid en sacos, ministros de mi Dios: porque quitado es de la casa de vuestro Dios el presente y la libación.
14 Sanctify a fast, proclaim a [solemn] service, gather the elders [and] all the inhabitants of the land into the house of your God, and cry earnestly to the Lord,
14 Pregonad ayuno, llamad á congregación; congregad los ancianos y todos los moradores de la tierra en la casa de Jehová vuestro Dios, y clamad á Jehová.
15 Alas, alas, alas for the day! for the day of the Lord is nigh, and it will come as trouble upon trouble.
15 ¡Ay del día! porque cercano está el día de Jehová, y vendrá como destrucción por el Todopoderoso.
16 [Your] meat has been destroyed before your eyes, joy and gladness from out of the house of your God.
16 ¿No es quitado el mantenimiento de delante de nuestros ojos, la alegría y el placer de la casa de nuestro Dios?
17 The heifers have started at their mangers, the treasures are abolished, the winepresses are broken down; for the corn is withered.
17 El grano se pudrió debajo de sus terrones, los bastimentos fueron asolados, los alfolíes destruídos; porque se secó el trigo.
18 What shall we store up for ourselves? the herds of cattle have mourned, because they had no pasture; and the flocks of sheep have been utterly destroyed.
18 ¡Cuánto gimieron las bestias! ¡cuán turbados anduvieron los hatos de los bueyes, porque no tuvieron pastos! también fueron asolados los rebaños de las ovejas.
19 To thee, O Lord, will I cry: for fire has devoured the fair places of the wilderness, and a flame has burned up all the trees of the field.
19 A ti, oh Jehová, clamaré: porque fuego consumió los pastos del desierto, y llama abrasó todos los árboles del campo.
20 And the cattle of the field have looked up to thee: for the fountains of waters have been dried up, and fire has devoured the fair places of the wilderness.
20 Las bestias del campo bramarán también á ti; porque se secaron los arroyos de las aguas, y fuego consumió las praderías del desierto.
