Jeremiah 12:9-11
Common English Bible
9 My inheritance has become
like a bird of prey,
surrounded and attacked.[a]
Go, gather all the wild animals for the feast.
10 Many shepherds have destroyed my vineyard;
they have trampled down my field;
they have reduced my treasured field
to a desolate wilderness.
11 They have devastated her;
desolate, she cries out to me in distress:
“The whole land is desolate,
and no one seems to care.”
