The word: “Wake up, you drunkards, and weep!”
취하는 자들에게 깨어 울라는 말씀
Joel 1:5–12: the text says, “Wake up, you drunkards, and weep! Wail, all you drinkers of wine, because of the sweet wine, for it is cut off from your mouth. For a nation has come up on my land, strong, and without number. His teeth are the teeth of a lion, and he has the fangs of a lioness. He has laid my vine waste, and stripped my fig tree. He has stripped its bark, and thrown it away. Its branches are made white. Mourn like a virgin dressed in sackcloth for the husband of her youth! The meal offering and the drink offering are cut off from the LORD’s house. The priests, the LORD’s ministers, mourn. The field is laid waste. The land mourns, for the grain is destroyed, The new wine has dried up, and the oil languishes. Be confounded, you farmers! Wail, you vineyard keepers, for the wheat and for the barley; for the harvest of the field has perished. The vine has dried up, and the fig tree withered— the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all of the trees of the field are withered; for joy has withered away from the sons of men.” The text does not name the one whose land, vine and fig tree 1:6–7 call “my”. The Korean Revised Version speaks of the nation of 1:6–7 in the plural (그들은, 그들이), where WEB reads “His teeth”, “he” and “He”; at 1:8 it reads 약혼한 남편, the betrothed husband, where WEB reads “the husband of her youth”; and at 1:12 it reads 대추나무 where WEB reads “the palm tree”.
