Jeremiah 9:8-10

Tree of Life Version

⁹ For the mountains I lift up weeping and wailing,
    a lament for the desert pastures.
    For they are so scorched
        that no one passes through—
        the lowing of cattle is not heard.
    The birds of the air have fled
        and the animals are gone.

¹⁰ “I will make Jerusalem a heap of ruins,
        a lair for jackals.
    I will make the cities of Judah
        a wasteland without inhabitant.
