Jeremiah 14:4-6

The Voice

⁴     The fields are dry and the ground is cracked because there is no rain.
        The farmers suffer shame; they, too, cover their heads.
⁵     Even the animals of the field struggle:
        the devoted doe walks away from her newborn fawn,
        all because there is no grass to be found.
⁶     The wild donkeys stand on barren hills panting like jackals in the dry heat.
        With no plants to eat, their bodies weaken—their eyes grow dim.
