Jeremiah 12:7-9 NIV

[7] “I will forsake my house, abandon my inheritance; I will give the one I love into the hands of her enemies. [8] My inheritance has become to me like a lion in the forest. She roars at me; therefore I hate her. [9] Has not my inheritance become to me like a speckled bird of prey that other birds of prey surround and attack? Go and gather all the wild beasts; bring them to devour.
