Jeremiah 4:23-28

23I looked at the earth and behold, it was deserted and desolate, and at the heavens and they had no light.

24I looked at the mountains— behold, they were shaking and all the hills swaying to and fro.

25I looked and behold, no people! All the birds of the sky had fled.

26I looked and behold, the fruitful field was a wilderness and all of its cities were in ruins before Adonai, before His fierce anger.

27For thus says Adonai, “The whole land will be wasteland, yet I will not totally destroy it.

28Therefore, the earth will mourn and the heavens above grow black. For I have spoken, I have purposed, nor will I relent, nor turn from it.
