Jeremiah 12:10-12

Good News Translation

¹⁰ Many foreign rulers have destroyed my vineyard;
    they have trampled down my fields;
    they have turned my lovely land into a desert.
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.
