Jeremiah 14:1-10

1The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 that came to JeremiahH3414 concerningH1697 the dearthH1226.1 2JudahH3063 mournethH56, and her gatesH8179 languishH535; they are blackH6937 to the groundH776; and the cryH6682 of JerusalemH3389 is gone upH5927. 3And their noblesH117 have sentH7971 their little onesH6810 to the watersH4325: they cameH935 to the pitsH1356H1360, and foundH4672 no waterH4325; they returnedH7725 with their vesselsH3627 emptyH7387; they were ashamedH954 and confoundedH3637, and coveredH2645 their headsH7218. 4Because the groundH127 is parchedH2865, for there was no rainH1653 on the earthH776, the plowmenH406 were ashamedH954, they coveredH2645 their headsH7218. 5Yea, the hindH365 also calvedH3205 in the fieldH7704, and forsookH5800 it, because there was no grassH1877. 6And the wild donkeysH6501 stoodH5975 in the high placesH8205, they snuffed upH7602 the windH7307 like dragonsH8577; their eyesH5869 failedH3615, because there was no grassH6212. 7O LORDH3068, though our iniquitiesH5771 testifyH6030 against us, doH6213 thou it for thy name’sH8034 sake: for our backslidingsH4878 are manyH7231; we have sinnedH2398 against thee. 8O the hopeH4723 of IsraelH3478, his saviourH3467 in timeH6256 of troubleH6869, why shouldest thou be as a strangerH1616 in the landH776, and as a wayfaring manH732 that turneth asideH5186 to tarry for a nightH3885? 9Why shouldest thou be as a manH376 dismayedH1724, as a mighty manH1368 that cannotH3201 saveH3467? yet thou, O LORDH3068, art in the midstH7130 of us, and we are calledH7121 by thy nameH8034; leaveH3240 us not.2

10Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 to this peopleH5971, Thus have they lovedH157 to wanderH5128, they have not restrainedH2820 their feetH7272, therefore the LORDH3068 doth not acceptH7521 them; he will now rememberH2142 their iniquityH5771, and punishH6485 their sinsH2403.
