15 Blow the horn in Zion! Proclaim a fast, call an assembly! 16 Gather the people, sanctify the congregation; Assemble the elderly; gather the children, even infants nursing at the breast; Let the bridegroom leave his room, and the bride her bridal tent. 17 Between the porch and the altar let the priests weep, let the ministers of the LORD weep and say: “Spare your people, LORD! do not let your heritage become a disgrace, a byword among the nations! Why should they say among the peoples, ‘Where is their God?’” Joel 2:15-17, New American Bible Revised. Copyright © 2010 USCCB.
