Jeremiah 9:10-11

New King James Version

¹⁰I will take up a weeping and wailing for the mountains,
And ^(A)for the ^[a]dwelling places of the wilderness a lamentation,
Because they are burned up,
So that no one can pass through;
Nor can men hear the voice of the cattle.
^(B)Both the birds of the heavens and the beasts have fled;
They are gone.

¹¹“I will make Jerusalem ^(C)a heap of ruins, ^(D)a den of jackals.
I will make the cities of Judah desolate, without an inhabitant.”
