Jeremiah 14:6-8

American Standard Version

⁶ And the wild asses stand on the bare heights, they pant for air like ^[a]jackals; their eyes fail, because there is no herbage.

⁷ Though our iniquities testify against us, work thou for thy name’s sake, O Jehovah; for our backslidings are many; we have sinned against thee. ⁸ O thou hope of Israel, the Saviour thereof in the time of trouble, why shouldest thou be as a sojourner in the land, and as a wayfaring man that ^[b]turneth aside to tarry for a night?
