¹⁴Consecrate a fast; proclaim a solemn assembly! Gather the elders and all the residents of the land to the house of the LORD your God, and cry out to the LORD.

¹⁵Alas for the day! For the Day of the LORD is near, and it will come as destruction from the Almighty.

¹⁶Has not the food been cut off before our very eyes— joy and gladness from the house of our God?
