Jeremiah 12:7-9
Lexham English Bible
7 I have forsaken my house, I have abandoned my inheritance.
I have given the beloved one of my heart[a] into the hand of her enemies.
8 My inheritance has become to me like a lion in the forest.
She has lifted up against me her voice; therefore[b] I hate her.
9 The lair of the hyena is my inheritance to me,
the birds of prey[c] are all around her.
Go, gather all of the animals[d] of the field,
bring them to come and devour.[e]
