Jeremiah 14:5
Berean Standard Bible
Even the doe in the field deserts her newborn fawn because there is no grass.
Context
3The nobles send their servants for water;
they go to the cisterns, but find no water;
their jars return empty.
They are ashamed and humiliated;
they cover their heads. 4The ground is cracked
because no rain has fallen on the land.
The farmers are ashamed;
they cover their heads. 5Even the doe in the field deserts her newborn fawn
because there is no grass. 6Wild donkeys stand on barren heights;
they pant for air like jackals;*
their eyes fail for lack of pasture.” 7Although our iniquities testify against us, O LORD,
act for the sake of Your name.
Indeed, our rebellions are many;
we have sinned against You.
