Jeremiah 12:8-10

Lexham English Bible

⁸ My inheritance has become to me like a lion in the forest.
    She has lifted up against me her voice; therefore^[a] I hate her.
⁹ The lair of the hyena is my inheritance to me,
    the birds of prey^[b] are all around her.
Go, gather all of the animals^[c] of the field,
    bring them to come and devour.^[d]
10 Many shepherds have destroyed my vineyard,
    they have trampled down my plot of land.
They have made my pleasant field^[e]
    like the desert^[f] of desolation.
