Jeremiah 4:23-31
23I beheld the earthH776, and lo, it was waste and empty; and the heavensH8064, and they had no lightH216. 24I beheld the mountainsH2022, and lo, they trembled, and all the hillsH1389 shookH7493 violently. 25I beheld, and lo, manH120 was not, and all the fowl of the heavensH8064 were fledH5074. 26I beheld, and lo, the fruitful land was a wildernessH4057, and all the citiesH5892 thereof were brokenH5422 downH5422, before Jehovah, before his fierce angerH639. 27For thusH3541 saith Jehovah: The whole landH776 shall beH1961 a desolationH8077; but I will not makeH6213 a full end. 28For this shall the earthH776 mournH56, and the heavensH8064 above be black; because I have spokenH1696 it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turnH7725 backH7725 therefrom. 29At the noise of the horsemenH6571 and bowmen, every cityH5892 fleeth; they goH935 into the thickets, and climb up upon the rocksH3710: every cityH5892 is forsaken and no manH376 dwelleth therein. 30— And thou, wasted one, what wilt thou do? Though thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornamentsH5716 of goldH2091, though thou rendest thine eyesH5869 with paint, in vain dost thou makeH6213 thyself fair: [thy] lovers despise thee, they seekH1245 thy lifeH5315. 31For I hearH8085 a voiceH6963, as of a woman in travail, anguish as of her that bringeth forth her first child, the voiceH6963 of the daughterH1323 of ZionH6726: she moaneth, she spreadeth forth her handsH3709, [saying], WoeH188 unto me! for my soulH5315 faileth because of murderers.
