11 The Lord God says: “[L Look; T Behold] The days are coming
    when I will ·cause a time of hunger in [send a famine throughout] the land.
·The people will not be hungry for bread or thirsty for water [L … not a famine of food or a thirst for water],
    but ·they will be hungry for words from [L for hearing the words of] the Lord.
12 They will ·wander [or stagger] from the ·Mediterranean Sea to the Dead Sea [L sea to sea; C across the whole land],
    from the north to the east.
They will ·search for [run to and fro seeking] the word of the Lord,
    but they won’t find it.
13 ·At that time [L In that day] the beautiful ·young women [virgins] and the young men
    will ·become weak [faint] from thirst.
