The word to the priests to put on sackcloth and mourn, and the cry to the LORD
제사장들에게 굵은 베로 동이고 울라는 말씀과 여호와께 부르짖는 말
Joel 1:13–20: the text says, “Put on sackcloth and mourn, you priests! Wail, you ministers of the altar. Come, lie all night in sackcloth, you ministers of my God, for the meal offering and the drink offering are withheld from your God’s house. Sanctify a fast. Call a solemn assembly. Gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land to the house of the LORD, your God, and cry to the LORD. Alas for the day! For the day of the LORD is at hand, and it will come as destruction from the Almighty. Isn’t the food cut off before our eyes, joy and gladness from the house of our God? The seeds rot under their clods. The granaries are laid desolate. The barns are broken down, for the grain has withered. How the animals groan! The herds of livestock are perplexed, because they have no pasture. Yes, the flocks of sheep are made desolate.” At 1:19–20 the words are the speaker’s (“I”) to the LORD: “LORD, I cry to you, for the fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame has burned all the trees of the field. Yes, the animals of the field pant to you, for the water brooks have dried up, and the fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness.” The text does not name the one who says “my God” at 1:13 or “I” at 1:19. The Korean Revised Version calls the priests at the opening of 1:13 (제사장들아), before the command.
