Wild donkeys stand on the bare hills.
    They sniff the wind like jackals.
But their eyes cannot find any food,
    because there are no plants to eat.

“We know that this is our fault.
    We are now suffering because of our sins.
    Lord, do something to help us for the good of your name.
We admit that we have left you many times.
    We have sinned against you.
God, you are the hope of Israel!
    You save Israel in times of trouble.
But now it seems like you are a stranger in the land,
    like a traveler who only stays one night.
