Jeremiah 4:23 - The Message

I looked at the earth—
   it was back to pre-Genesis chaos and emptiness.
I looked at the skies,
   and not a star to be seen.
I looked at the mountains—
   they were trembling like aspen leaves,
And all the hills
   rocking back and forth in the wind.
I looked—what’s this! Not a man or woman in sight,
   and not a bird to be seen in the skies.
I looked—this can’t be! Every garden and orchard shriveled up.
   All the towns were ghost towns.
And all this because of God,
   because of the blazing anger of God.
