28  “For this the earth shall ^amourn,

and the heavens above be dark;

for I have spoken; I have purposed;

I have not relented, ^bnor will I turn back.”

11  They have made it a desolation;

desolate, it mourns to me.

The whole land is made desolate,

but ^yno man lays it to heart.

2  “Judah mourns,

and her gates languish;

her people lament on the ground,

and the cry of Jerusalem goes up.

10  For the land is full of ^hadulterers;

because of the curse the land mourns,

and the pastures of the wilderness are dried up.

Their course is evil,

and their might is not right.
