Jeremiah 14:6 Context
4Because the ground is chapt, for there was no raine in the earth, the plowmen were ashamed, they couered their heads. 5Yea the hinde also calued in the field, and forsooke it, because there was no grasse. 6And the wilde asses did stand in the hie places, they snuffed vp the winde like dragons: their eyes did faile because there was no grasse. 7¶ O Lord, though our iniquities testifie against vs, doe thou it for thy Names sake: for our back-slidings are many, we haue sinned against thee. 8O the hope of Israel, the Sauiour thereof in time of trouble, why shouldest thou be as a stranger in the land, and as a wayfaring man, that turneth aside to tarie for a night?
