Jeremiah 14:3-5
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 14
3Their nobles have sent their servants for water; They have come to the cisterns and found no water. They have returned with their containers empty; They have been put to shame and humiliated, And they cover their heads, 4Because the ground is cracked, For there has been no rain on the land. The farmers have been put to shame, They have covered their heads. 5For even the doe in the field has given birth only to abandon her young, Because there is no grass.King James Version
