Jeremiah 14:6
World English Bible (WEB)
The wild donkeys stand on the bare heights. They pant for air like jackals. Their eyes fail, because there is no vegetation.

5 Yes, the doe in the field also calves and forsakes her young, because there is no grass.
6 The wild donkeys stand on the bare heights. They pant for air like jackals. Their eyes fail, because there is no vegetation.
7 Though our iniquities testify against us, work for your name’s sake, LORD; for our rebellions are many. We have sinned against you.
8 You hope of Israel, its Savior in the time of trouble, why should you be as a foreigner in the land, and as a wayfaring man who turns aside to stay for a night?
