In context

1This is the word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah concerning the drought:

2“Judah mourns and her gates languish. Her people wail for the land, and a cry goes up from Jerusalem.

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.
