Jeremiah 14:6-8

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁶ Wild donkeys stand on the barren heights.
They pant for air like jackals.
Their eyes grow dim,
because there are no plants to eat.

⁷     Do something, Lord, for the sake of your name,
    even though our guilt testifies against us.
    We have rebelled many times,
    and we have sinned against you.
⁸     You are Israel’s hope,
    its Savior in times of trouble.
    Why are you like a stranger in the land,
    like a traveler who stays only for the night?
