1. When there had been no rain for a long time, the Lord told me to say to the people:
2. Judah and Jerusalem weepas the land dries up.
3. Rulers send their servantsto the storage pits for water.But there's none to be found;they return in despairwith their jars still empty.
4. There has been no rain,and farmers feel sickas they watch cracks appearin the dry ground.
