Jeremiah 12:6-8
New King James Version

6 For even (A)your brothers, the house of your father,
Even they have dealt treacherously with you;
Yes, they have called [a]a multitude after you.
(B)Do not believe them,
Even though they speak [b]smooth words to you.

7 “I have forsaken My house, I have left My heritage;
I have given the dearly beloved of My soul into the hand of her enemies.
8 My heritage is to Me like a lion in the forest;
It cries out against Me;
Therefore I have (C)hated it.

    like a lion(G) in the forest.
