Following are a number of back-translations as well as a sample translation for translators of Joel 1:9:

that can be given in/to the Home of God.
The priests are crying
those who serve God.” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “The grain offerings and the drink offerings have been stopped in the LORD’s Temple.
The priests who are serving the LORD cry out loudly in front of Him.” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “For there-are-no more grains and wines to be-offered in the temple of the LORD; that (is) why the priests who serve the LORD are-mourning.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation)
