Jeremiah 14:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 And their nobles have sent their inferiors to the water, who came to the wells, and found no water: they returned with their vessels empty: they were ashamed and confounded: and [a]covered their heads.
4 For the ground was destroyed, because there was no rain in the earth: the plowmen were ashamed, and covered their heads.
5 Yea, the hind also calved in the field, and forsook [b]it, because there was no grass.
