Jeremiah 14:5-7

Amplified Bible

⁵ 
“The doe in the field has given birth only to abandon her young
Because there is no grass.
⁶ 
“And the wild donkeys stand on the barren heights;
They pant for air like jackals,
Their eyesight fails
Because there is no grass.
⁷ 
“O Lord, though our many sins testify against us” [prays Jeremiah],
“Act now [for us and] for Your name’s sake [so that the faithless may witness Your faithfulness]!
For our backslidings are countless;
We have sinned against You.
