Jeremiah 12:8-10
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
8 My inheritance is become to me as a lion in the wood: is hath cried out against me, therefore have I hated it.
9 Is my inheritance to me as a speckled bird? Is it as a bird died throughout? come ye, assemble yourselves, all the beasts of the earth, make haste to devour.
10 Many pastors have destroyed my vineyard, they have trodden my portion under foot: they have changed my delightful portion into a desolate wilderness.

Jeremiah 12:8-10
New International Version
8 My inheritance has become to me
like a lion(A) in the forest.
She roars at me;
therefore I hate her.(B)
9 Has not my inheritance become to me
like a speckled bird of prey
that other birds of prey surround and attack?
Go and gather all the wild beasts;
bring them to devour.(C)
10 Many shepherds(D) will ruin my vineyard
and trample down my field;
they will turn my pleasant field
into a desolate wasteland.(E)
