11 [a]It has been made a desolation;
Desolate, it (A)mourns [b]before Me;
The (B)whole land has been made desolate
Because no man (C)sets it upon his heart.
12 On all the [c](D)bare heights in the wilderness
Destroyers have come,
For a (E)sword of Yahweh is devouring
From one end of the land even to the [d]other;
There is (F)no peace for any flesh.
13 They have (G)sown wheat and have reaped thorns;
They have (H)strained themselves [e]to no profit.
But be ashamed of your (I)produce
Because of the (J)burning anger of Yahweh.”
