Habakkuk 3:17

Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls:

KJV

Ficus enim non florebit, et non erit germen in vineis ; mentietur opus olivæ, et arva non afferent cibum : abscindetur de ovili pecus, et non erit armentum in præsepibus.

Vulgate

διότι συκῆ οὐ καρποφορήσει, καὶ οὐκ ἔσται γενήματα ἐν ταῖς ἀμπέλοις· ψεύσεται ἔργον ἐλαίας, καὶ τὰ πεδία οὐ ποιήσει βρῶσιν· ἐξέλιπεν ἀπὸ βρώσεως πρόβατα, καὶ οὐχ ὑπάρχουσιν βόες ἐπὶ φάτναις.

LXX

For though the fig-tree shall not flourish, Neither shall fruit be in the vines; The labor of the olive shall fail, And the fields shall yield no food; The flock shall be cut off from the fold, And there shall be no herd in the stalls:

ASV

כִּֽי תְאֵנָ֣ה לֹֽא תִפְרָ֗ח וְ/אֵ֤ין יְבוּל֙ בַּ/גְּפָנִ֔ים כִּחֵשׁ֙ מַעֲשֵׂה זַ֔יִת וּ/שְׁדֵמ֖וֹת לֹא עָ֣שָׂה אֹ֑כֶל גָּזַ֤ר מִ/מִּכְלָה֙ צֹ֔אן וְ/אֵ֥ין בָּקָ֖ר בָּ/רְפָתִֽים
