1 The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah concerning the droughts. 2 Judah mourneth, and the gates thereof languish, They bow down in black unto the ground; And the cry of Jerusalem is gone up. 3 And their nobles send their lads for water: They come to the pits, and find no water; Their vessels return empty; They are ashamed and confounded, and cover their heads. 4 Because of the ground which is cracked, For there hath been no rain in the land, The plowmen are ashamed, they cover their heads. Jeremiah 14:1-4, JPS Tanakh 1917. Public domain.
