Jeremiah 12:7-10

MSTC(i) 7 As for me, say I, I have forsaken mine own dwelling place, and left mine heritage. My life also that I love so well, have I given into the hands of mine enemies. 8 Mine heritage is become unto me, as a Lion in the wood. It cried out upon me, therefore have I forsaken it. 9 Mine heritage is unto me, as a speckled bird; a bird of divers colors is upon it. Go hence, and gather all the beasts of the field together, that they may eat it up. 10 Divers herdsmen have broken down my vineyard, and trodden upon my portion. Of my pleasant portion, they have made a wilderness and desert.
