They have [a]put themselves to pain but do not profit.
But be ashamed of your harvest
Because of the fierce anger of the Lord.”

14 Thus says the Lord: “Against all My evil neighbors who (B)touch the inheritance which I have caused My people Israel to inherit—behold, I will (C)pluck them out of their land and pluck out the house of Judah from among them. 15 (D)Then it shall be, after I have plucked them out, that I will return and have compassion on them (E)and bring them back, everyone to his heritage and everyone to his land.
