Jeremiah 12:7-9

Revised Geneva Translation

⁷ “I have forsaken My House. I have left My heritage. I have given the dearly beloved of My Soul into the hands of her enemies.

⁸ “My heritage is to Me as a lion in the forest. It cries out against Me. Therefore, I have hated it.

⁹ “Shall My heritage be to Me as a bird of diverse colors? Are not the birds around her saying, ‘Come, assemble all the beasts of the field. Come to eat her’?
