10 Many (A)shepherds have ruined My (B)vineyard,
They have (C)trampled down My field;
They have made My (D)pleasant field
A desolate wilderness.
11 [a]It has been made a desolation;
Desolate, it (E)mourns [b]before Me;
The (F)whole land has been made desolate,
Because no one (G)takes it to heart.
12 On all the [c](H)bare heights in the wilderness
Destroyers have come,
For the (I)sword of the Lord is devouring
From one end of the land even to the [d]other;
There is (J)no peace for [e]anyone.
