Jeremiah 2:6

Death — Bringing forth nothing that might support life, therefore nothing but death could be expected; and besides, yielding so many venomous creatures, as many enemies that they went in continual danger of. No man dwelt — As having in it no accommodation for travellers, much less for habitation.
