Jeremiah 4:24-26

New Catholic Bible

²⁴ I looked at the mountains,
    and they were quaking,
    while all the hills moved back and forth.
²⁵ I looked, but I could not see anyone;
    even the birds of the air had flown away.
²⁶ I looked, and the fertile land had become a desert;
    all of its towns lay in ruins
    before the Lord, before his blazing anger.
