Jeremiah 12:11-13

Jeremiah 12:11-13
Good News Translation
11 They have made it a wasteland;
it lies desolate before me.
The whole land has become a desert,
and no one cares.
12 Across all the desert highlands
people have come to plunder.
I have sent war to destroy the entire land;
no one can live in peace.
13 My people planted wheat, but gathered weeds;
they have worked hard, but got nothing for it.
Because of my fierce anger
their crops have failed.”
Jeremiah 12:11-13

Jeremiah 12:11-13
New International Version
11 It will be made a wasteland,(A)
parched and desolate before me;(B)
the whole land will be laid waste
because there is no one who cares.
12 Over all the barren heights in the desert
destroyers will swarm,
for the sword(C) of the Lord(D) will devour(E)
from one end of the land to the other;(F)
no one will be safe.(G)
13 They will sow wheat but reap thorns;
they will wear themselves out but gain nothing.(H)
They will bear the shame of their harvest
because of the Lord’s fierce anger.”(I)
