Jeremiah 9:10-13

10I will take upH5375 a weepingH1065 and wailingH5092 forH5921 the mountainsH2022, a dirgeH7015 overH5921 the wildernessH4057 pastureH4999, forH3588 they have been scorchedH3341 so noH1097 oneH376 passes throughH5674, and the lowingH6963 of cattleH4735 is notH3808 heardH8085. Both the birdsH5775 of the airH8064 andH5704 the beastsH929 have fledH5074; they have gone awayH1980.

11“And I will makeH5414 JerusalemH3389 a heap of rubbleH1530,a hauntH4583 for jackalsH8577;1and I will makeH5414 the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 a desolationH8077,withoutH1097 inhabitantH3427.”

12WhoH4310 is the manH376 wiseH2450 enough to understandH995 thisH2063? To whomH834 has the mouthH6310 of the LORDH3068 spokenH1696, that he may explain itH5046? WhyH5921H4100 is the landH776 destroyedH6 and scorchedH5327 like a desertH4057, so noH1097 one can pass through itH5674?

13And the LORDH3068 answeredH559, “It is becauseH5921 they have forsakenH5800 My lawH8451, whichH834 I setH5414 before themH6440; they have notH3808 walkedH1980 in it or obeyedH8085 My voiceH6963.
