Jeremiah 14:2-6

2“Judah mourns, And her gates languish; They mourn for the land, And the cry of Jerusalem has gone up.

3Their nobles have sent their lads for water; They went to the cisterns and found no water. They returned with their vessels empty; They were ashamed and confounded And covered their heads.

4Because the ground is parched, For there was no rain in the land, The plowmen were ashamed; They covered their heads.

5Yes, the deer also gave birth in the field, But left because there was no grass.

6And the wild donkeys stood in the desolate heights; They sniffed at the wind like jackals; Their eyes failed because there was no grass.”
