Jeremiah 12 1 Righteous art thou, O Lord , when I plead with thee: yet let me talk with thee of thy judgments : Wherefore doth the way of the wicked prosper ? wherefore are all they happy that deal very treacherously ? Copy 2 Thou hast planted them, yea, they have taken root : they grow , yea, they bring forth fruit : thou art near in their mouth , and far from their reins . Copy 3 But thou, O Lord , knowest me: thou hast seen me, and tried mine heart toward thee: pull them out like sheep for the slaughter , and prepare them for the day of slaughter . Copy 4 How long shall the land mourn , and the herbs of every field wither , for the wickedness of them that dwell therein? the beasts are consumed , and the birds ; because they said , He shall not see our last end . Copy 5 If thou hast run with the footmen , and they have wearied thee, then how canst thou contend with horses ? and if in the land of peace , wherein thou trustedst , they wearied thee, then how wilt thou do in the swelling of Jordan ? Copy 6 For even thy brethren , and the house of thy father , even they have dealt treacherously with thee; yea, they have called a multitude after thee: believe them not, though they speak fair words unto thee. Copy 7 I have forsaken mine house , I have left mine heritage ; I have given the dearly beloved of my soul into the hand of her enemies . Copy 8 Mine heritage is unto me as a lion in the forest ; it crieth out against me: therefore have I hated it. Copy 9 Mine heritage is unto me as a speckled bird , the birds round about are against her; come ye, assemble all the beasts of the field , come to devour . Copy 10 Many pastors have destroyed my vineyard , they have trodden my portion under foot , they have made my pleasant portion a desolate wilderness . Copy 11 They have made it desolate , and being desolate it mourneth unto me; the whole land is made desolate , because no man layeth it to heart . Copy 12 The spoilers are 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 flesh shall have peace . Copy 13 They have sown wheat , but shall reap thorns : they have put themselves to pain , but shall not profit : and they shall be ashamed of your revenues because of the fierce anger of the Lord . Copy 14 Thus saith the Lord against all mine evil neighbours , that touch the inheritance which I have caused my people Israel to inherit ; Behold, I will pluck them out of their land , and pluck out the house of Judah from among them. Copy 15 And it shall come to pass, after that I have plucked them out I will return , and have compassion on them, and will bring them again , every man to his heritage , and every man to his land . Copy 16 And it shall come to pass, if they will diligently learn the ways of my people , to swear by my name , The Lord liveth ; as they taught my people to swear by Baal ; then shall they be built in the midst of my people . Copy 17 But if they will not obey , I will utterly pluck up and destroy that nation , saith the Lord . Copy
