Jeremiah's Complaint
|
||||
|
||||
# Chapter 12
|
||||
1. You will be righteous, Lord,
|
||||
even if I bring a case against you.
|
||||
Yet, I wish to contend with you:
|
||||
Why does the way of the wicked prosper?
|
||||
Why do all the treacherous live at ease?
|
||||
|
||||
2. You planted them, and they have taken root.
|
||||
They have grown and produced fruit.
|
||||
You are ever on their lips,
|
||||
but far from their conscience.
|
||||
|
||||
3. As for you, Lord, you know me; you see me.
|
||||
You test whether my heart is with you.
|
||||
Drag the wicked away like sheep to slaughter
|
||||
and set them apart for the day of killing.
|
||||
|
||||
4. How long will the land mourn
|
||||
and the grass of every field wither?
|
||||
Because of the evil of its residents,
|
||||
animals and birds have been swept away,
|
||||
for the people have said,
|
||||
"He cannot see what our end will be.
|
||||
|
||||
"
|
||||
The Lord's Response
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
5. If you have raced with runners
|
||||
and they have worn you out,
|
||||
how can you compete with horses?
|
||||
If you stumble in a peaceful land,
|
||||
what will you do in the thickets of the Jordan?
|
||||
|
||||
6. Even your brothers--your own father's family--
|
||||
even they were treacherous to you;
|
||||
even they have cried out loudly after you.
|
||||
Do not have confidence in them,
|
||||
though they speak well of you.
|
||||
|
||||
7. I have abandoned my house;
|
||||
I have deserted my inheritance.
|
||||
|
||||
I have handed the love of my life
|
||||
over to her enemies.
|
||||
|
||||
8. My inheritance has behaved toward me
|
||||
like a lion in the forest.
|
||||
She has roared against me.
|
||||
Therefore, I hate her.
|
||||
|
||||
9. Is my inheritance like a hyena to me?
|
||||
Are birds of prey circling her?
|
||||
Go, gather all the wild animals;
|
||||
bring them to devour her.
|
||||
|
||||
10. Many shepherds have destroyed my vineyard;
|
||||
they have trampled my plot of land.
|
||||
|
||||
They have turned my desirable plot
|
||||
into a desolate wasteland.
|
||||
|
||||
11. They have made it a desolation.
|
||||
It mourns, desolate, before me.
|
||||
All the land is desolate,
|
||||
but no one takes it to heart.
|
||||
|
||||
12. Over all the barren heights in the wilderness
|
||||
the destroyers have come,
|
||||
for the Lord has a sword that devours
|
||||
from one end of the earth to the other.
|
||||
No one has peace.
|
||||
|
||||
13. They have sown wheat but harvested thorns.
|
||||
They have exhausted themselves but have no profit.
|
||||
|
||||
Be put to shame by your harvests
|
||||
because of the Lord's burning anger.
|
||||
|
||||
14. This is what the Lord says: "Concerning all my evil neighbors who attack the inheritance that I bequeathed to my people, Israel, I am about to uproot them from their land, and I will uproot the house of Judah from them.
|
||||
15. After I have uprooted them, I will once again have compassion on them and return each one to his inheritance and to his land.
|
||||
16. If they will diligently learn the ways of my people--to swear by my name, 'As the Lord lives,' just as they taught my people to swear by Baal--they will be built up among my people.
|
||||
17. However, if they will not obey, then I will uproot and destroy that nation."
|
||||
This is the Lord's declaration.
