10  The fields are destroyed,

^jthe ground mourns,

because the grain is destroyed,

the wine dries up,

the oil languishes.

11  ^kBe ashamed,¹ O tillers of the soil;

wail, O vinedressers,

for the wheat and the barley,

because the harvest of the field has perished.

12  The vine dries up;

the fig tree languishes.

Pomegranate, palm, and apple,

all the trees of the field are dried up,

and gladness dries up

from the children of man.

17  The seed shrivels under the clods;¹

the storehouses are desolate;

the granaries are torn down

because the grain has dried up.

18  How the beasts groan!

The herds of cattle are perplexed

because there is no pasture for them;

even the flocks of sheep suffer.²

19  To you, O Lord, I call.

For fire has devoured

the ^ppastures of the wilderness,

and flame has burned

all the trees of the field.

20  Even the beasts of the field pant for you

because the water brooks are dried up,

and fire has devoured

the pastures of the wilderness.
