Jeremiah 12:7 in Context — Jeremiah 12

5 Si corriste con los de á pie, y te cansaron, ¿cómo contenderás con los caballos? Y [si] en la tierra de paz estabas quieto, ¿cómo harás en la hinchazón del Jordán?

6 Porque aun tus hermanos y la casa de tu padre, aun ellos se levantaron contra ti, aun ellos dieron voces en pos de ti. No los creas, cuando bien te hablaren.

7 He dejado mi casa, desamparé mi heredad, entregado he lo que amaba mi alma en manos de sus enemigos.

8 Fué para mí mi heredad como león en breña: contra mí dió su voz; por tanto la aborrecí.

9 ¿Esme mi heredad ave de muchos colores? ¿no están contra ella aves en derredor? Venid, reuníos, [vosotras] todas las bestias del campo, venid á devorarla.
