Jeremiah 14:1-6

1That which came as the word of the Lord to Jeremiah in regard to the adrought: 2Judah mourns
And bher gates languish;
They sit on the ground cin mourning,
And the dcry of Jerusalem has ascended.
3Their nobles have esent their
Lit little ones
servants for water;
They have come to the gcisterns and found no water.
They have returned with their vessels empty;
They have been hput to shame and humiliated,
And they icover their heads.
4Because the jground is
Lit shattered
cracked,
For there has been lno rain on the land;
The mfarmers have been put to shame,
They have covered their heads.
5For even the doe in the field has given birth only to abandon her young,
Because there is nno grass.
6“The owild donkeys stand on the bare heights;
They pant for air like jackals,
Their eyes fail
For there is pno vegetation.
