Jeremiah 12:7-12

7I have forsakenH5203 mine houseH1004, I have castH5414 offH5414 mine heritageH5159; I have givenH5414 the dearly belovedH3033 of my soulH5315 intoH5414 the handH3709 of herH5414 enemiesH341.

8Mine heritageH5159 is becomeH1961 unto meH5414 as a lionH738 in the forestH3293: sheH3651 hath utteredH5414 herH5921 voiceH6963 againstH5921 meH5414; therefore I have hatedH8130 herH5921.

9Is mine heritageH5159 unto meH5921 as a speckledH6641 birdH5861 of preyH5861? are the birdsH5861 of preyH5861 againstH5921 herH3605 roundH5439 aboutH5439? goH622 ye, assembleH622 allH3605 the beastsH2416 of the fieldH7704, bringH857 them to devour.

10ManyH7227 shepherdsH7462 have destroyedH7843 my vineyardH3754, they have troddenH947 my portionH2513 under foot, they have madeH5414 my pleasantH2532 portionH2513 a desolateH8077 wildernessH4057.

11They have madeH7760 it a desolationH8077; it mourneth unto meH5921, being desolateH8074; the wholeH3605 landH776 is madeH7760 desolateH8074, becauseH3588 noH369 manH376 layeth it to heartH3820.

12Spoilers are comeH935 uponH5921 allH3605 the bareH8205 heightsH8205 in the wildernessH4057: for the swordH2719 of the LORDH3068 devoureth from the one endH7097 of the landH776 evenH5704 to the otherH3605 endH7097 of the landH776: noH369 fleshH1320 hath peaceH7965.
