Jeremiah 4:23-28
New American Standard Bible
23 I looked at the earth, and behold, it was a [a](A)formless and desolate emptiness;
And to the heavens, and they had no light.
24 I looked on the mountains, and behold, they were (B)quaking,
And all the hills jolted back and forth.
25 I looked, and behold, there was no human,
And all the (C)birds of the sky had fled.
26 I looked, and behold, [b]the (D)fruitful land was a wilderness,
And all its cities were pulled down
Before the Lord, before His fierce anger.
27 For this is what the Lord says:
“The (E)whole land shall be a desolation,
Yet I will (F)not execute a complete destruction.
28 For this the (G)earth will mourn,
And the (H)heavens above will become dark,
Because I have (I)spoken, I have purposed,
And I have not [c]changed My mind, nor will I turn from it.”

Jeremiah 4:23-28
King James Version
23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.
24 I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.
25 I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled.
26 I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the Lord, and by his fierce anger.
27 For thus hath the Lord said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end.
28 For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be black; because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turn back from it.
