10For the mountains will I take up a weeping and wailing, and for the habitations of the wilderness a lamentation, because they are burned up, so that none can pass through them; neither can men hear the voice of the cattle; both the fowl of the heavens and the beast are fled; they are gone.Select Jeremiah 9:10

13And the Lord saith, Because they have forsaken my law which I set before them, and have not obeyed my voice, neither walked therein;Select Jeremiah 9:13
14But have walked after the imagination of their own heart, and after Baalim, which their fathers taught them:Select Jeremiah 9:14
