- ગુજરાતી — યર્મિયા ૧૨:૪
- ક્યાં સુધી ભૂમિ શોક કરશે અને ખેતરમાંની વનસ્પતિ કરમાઈ જશે? દેશના રહેવાસીઓની દુષ્ટતાને કારણે, પશુ તથા પક્ષી નષ્ટ થયાં છે. તેમ છતાં, લોકો કહે છે, “આપણને શું થાય છે તે ઈશ્વર જાણતા નથી.’
- हिन्दी — यिर्मयाह १२:४
- कब तक देश विलाप करता रहेगा, और सारे मैदान की घास सूखी रहेगी ? देश के निवासियों की बुराई के कारण पशु-पक्षी सब नाश हो गए हैं, क्योंकि उन लोगों ने कहा, “वह हमारे अन्त को न देखेगा।”
