Jer 16:4 -
They
shall die of grievous deaths; they shall not be lamented; neither shall they
be buried; but they shall be as dung upon the face of the earth: and they
shall be consumed by the sword, and by famine; and their carcases shall be
meat for the fowls of heaven, and for the beasts of the earth.

An elderly woman in Dhaka, Bangladesh, searches for edible morsels that
might have fallen into the dirt beneath a food truck. In Bangladesh it is
not uncommon for households to spend 70 percent of their income on food.
Scarcity and escalating prices have left people with no choice but to wait
in line for hours just to obtain a bag of rice. Officials from the interim
government are hoping to ease the food crisis by importing a large quantity
of rice from India to be sold below cost. (Lalage Snow, AFP, Getty)
