LXX2012⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹³ Gird yourselves [with sackcloth], and lament, you⌃ priests: mourn, you⌃ that serve at the altar: go in, sleep in sackcloths, you⌃ that minister to God: for the meat-offering and drink-offering are withheld from the house of your God. 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, ¹⁵ Alas, Alas, Alas for the day! for the day of the Lord is near, and it will come as trouble upon trouble. ¹⁶ [Your] meat has been destroyed before your eyes, joy and gladness from out of the house of your God. ¹⁷ The heifers have started at their mangers, the treasures are abolished, the wine presses are broken down; for the corn is withered. 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. ¹⁹ To you, O Lord, will I cry: for fire has devoured the fair places of the wilderness, and a flame has burnt up all the trees of the field. ²⁰ And the cattle of the field have looked up to you: for the fountains of waters have been dried up, and fire has devoured the fair places of the wilderness.
