Verse 4
How long shall the land{H776} mourn{H56}{(H8799)}, and the herbs{H6212} of every field{H7704} wither{H3001}{(H8799)}, for the wickedness{H7451} of them that dwell{H3427}{(H8802)} therein? the beasts{H929} are consumed{H5595}{(H8804)}, and the birds{H5775}; because they said{H559}{(H8804)}, He shall not see{H7200}{(H8799)} our last end{H319}.
