Jeremiah 14:5-6

14:5 Even the doe abandons her newborn fawn ¹  in the field

because there is no grass.

14:6 Wild donkeys stand on the hilltops

and pant for breath like jackals.

Their eyes are strained looking for food,

because there is none to be found.” ² 

[14:5]  ¹ tn Heb “she gives birth and abandons.”

[14:6]  ² tn Heb “their eyes are strained because there is no verdure.”
