Jeremiah 12:12-14

Modern English Version

¹² The destroyers have come
    upon all high places through the wilderness,
for the sword of the Lord shall devour
    from the one end of the land even to the other end of the land.
    No one shall have peace.
¹³ They have sown wheat, but reap thorns;
    they have strained themselves, but shall not profit.
And they shall be ashamed of your harvest
    because of the fierce anger of the Lord.
