Jeremiah 14:2-4

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

² Judea hath mourned, and the gates thereof are fallen, and are become obscure on the ground, and the cry of Jerusalem is gone up.

³ The great ones sent their inferiors to the water: they came to draw, they found no water, they carried back their vessels empty: they were confounded and afflicted, and covered their heads.

⁴ For the destruction of the land, because there came no rain upon the earth, the husbandmen were confounded, they covered their heads.
