Jeremiah 14
1This 1
2“ Judah 2 and its gates languish. 1 They sit in black on the ground. 2 The cry of Jerusalem goes up. 1
3Their 2 They come to the cisterns, 2 and find no water. 1 They return with their vessels empty. 2 They are disappointed and confounded, 2 and cover their heads. 1
4Because 2 because no rain has been in the land, 1 the plowmen are disappointed. 2 They cover their heads. 1
5Yes 2 because there is no grass. 1
6The 2 They pant for air like jackals. 1 Their eyes fail, 2 because there is no vegetation. 1
7Though 2 work for your name’s sake, LORD; 1 for our rebellions are many. 2 We have sinned against you. 1
8You 2 its Savior in the time of trouble, 1 why should you be as a foreigner in the land, 2 and as a wayfaring man who turns aside to stay for a night? 1
9Why 2 as a mighty man who can’t save? 1 Yet you, LORD, are in the middle of us, 2 and we are called by your name. 2 Don’t leave us.
