the,vine withers and,the,fig_tree droops pomegranate also/yet palm and,apple_tree
Joel is not referring to a specific vine, fig tree, pomegranate tree, palm tree, or apple tree. He is talking about these kinds of trees in general. It may be more natural in your language to express this meaning by using plural forms. Alternate translation: [The vines have dried up and the fig trees have been made weak. The pomegranate trees, also the palm trees and the apple trees]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
אֻמְלָ֑לָה
droops
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: [has become weak]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וְהַתְּאֵנָ֖ה אֻמְלָ֑לָה
and,the,fig_tree droops
Here Joel is speaking of the fig tree as if it had been strong and now was weak. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the fig tree is withered] or [the fig tree is dying]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole
כָּל־עֲצֵ֤י הַשָּׂדֶה֙ יָבֵ֔שׁוּ
all/each/any/every tree/wood_of the=field dried_up
Joel is making an overstatement for emphasis. If it would be clearer in your language, you could express the emphasis in a different way. Alternate translation: [trees of the field of every kind have dried up]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
הֹבִ֥ישׁ שָׂשׂ֖וֹן מִן־בְּנֵ֥י אָדָֽם
dried_up joy from/more_than sons_of humankind
Joel is speaking of joy as if it were a liquid that had literally dried up. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [people no longer feel joyful]
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
בְּנֵ֥י אָדָֽם
sons_of humankind
Here the masculine terms sons and man have a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could use language in your translation that is clearly inclusive of both men and women. Alternate translation: [human beings]
