In accordance with its wickedness I have (C)driven it out. 12 (D)Foreign (E)tyrants of the nations have cut it down and left it; on the (F)mountains and in all the valleys its branches have fallen, and its branches have been broken in all the ravines of the land. And all the peoples of the earth have (G)gone down from its shade and left it.
