On that day of judgment the Lord will strip away everything that makes her beautiful: ornaments, headbands, crescent necklaces,earrings, bracelets, and veils;scarves, ankle bracelets, sashes, perfumes, and charms;rings, jewels,party clothes, gowns, capes, and purses;mirrors, fine linen garments, head ornaments, and shawls.Instead of smelling of sweet perfume, she will stink. She will wear a rope for a sash, and her elegant hair will fall out. She will wear rough burlap instead of rich robes. Shame will replace her beauty.The men of the city will be killed with the sword, and her warriors will die in battle.The gates of Zion will weep and mourn. The city will be like a ravaged woman, huddled on the ground.

Haggai 1:6-11
You have planted much but harvest little. You eat but are not satisfied. You drink but are still thirsty. You put on clothes but cannot keep warm. Your wages disappear as though you were putting them in pockets filled with holes!“ This is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says: Look at what’s happening to you!Now go up into the hills, bring down timber, and rebuild my house. Then I will take pleasure in it and be honored, says the Lord.You hoped for rich harvests, but they were poor. And when you brought your harvest home, I blew it away. Why? Because my house lies in ruins, says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, while all of you are busy building your own fine houses.It’s because of you that the heavens withhold the dew and the earth produces no crops.I have called for a drought on your fields and hills— a drought to wither the grain and grapes and olive trees and all your other crops, a drought to starve you and your livestock and to ruin everything you have worked so hard to get.”

Your only harvest will be a load of grief and unrelieved pain.
