1 The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah concerning the drought. 2 Judah mourneth, and the gates thereof languish, they sit in black upon the ground; and the cry of Jerusalem is gone up. 3 And their nobles send their little ones to the waters: they come to the pits, and find no water; they return with their vessels empty: they are ashamed and confounded, and cover their heads. 4 Because of the ground which is chapt, for that no rain hath been in the land, the plowmen are ashamed, they cover their heads. Jeremiah 14:1-4, English Revised Version. Public domain.
