Jeremiah 14:1-6

Drought and a Prayer for Mercy

1 That which came as the word of the Lord to Jeremiah regarding the ^adrought:

2 “Judah mourns
And ^bher gates languish;
Her people sit on the ground ^cin mourning garments,
And the ^dcry of Jerusalem has ascended.
3 “Their 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 containers empty;
They have been ^hput to shame and humiliated,
And they ⁱcover their heads,
4 Because 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.
5 “For 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
Because there is ^pno vegetation.
