Leeser(i)
4 The land mourneth, withereth away, the world languishes, withereth away, the high ones of the people of the land do languish.
5 For the land was defiled under its inhabitants; because they had transgressed the laws, neglected the statutes, broken the everlasting covenant.
6 Therefore hath the curse devoured the land, and they that dwell therein suffer for their guilt; therefore are the inhabitants of the land dried up, and but few men are left.
