(A)Shall I not punish them for these things?” declares the Lord.
“Shall I not avenge Myself
On a nation such as this?

10 “I will take up a weeping and wailing for the (B)mountains,
And for the pastures of the (C)wilderness a song of mourning,
Because they are (D)laid waste so that no one passes through,
And the sound of the livestock is not heard;
Both the (E)birds of the sky and the animals have fled; they are gone.
11 I will make Jerusalem a (F)heap of ruins,
A haunt of (G)jackals;
And I will make the cities of Judah a (H)desolation without inhabitant.”
