Jeremiah 12:12-14

International Children’s Bible

¹² Many soldiers will march over those barren hills.
    The Lord will use the armies to punish that land.
People from one end of the land to the other will be punished.
    No one will be safe.
¹³ The people will plant wheat.
    But they will harvest only thorns.
They will work hard until they are very tired.
    But they will get nothing for all their work.
You will be ashamed of your poor harvest.
    The Lord’s terrible anger has caused this.”
