Jeremiah 14:2-4

Evangelical Heritage Version

² Judah mourns.
Her city gates fall apart.
They mourn for the land,
and a cry of grief rises from Jerusalem.
³ The strong send the weak to get water.
They go to the cisterns but find no water.
They return with empty containers.
Ashamed and humiliated, they cover their heads.
⁴ The ground is cracked,
because there has been no rain in the land.
The farmers are distressed.
They cover their heads.
