Even they have dealt treacherously with you;
Yes, they have called1 a multitude after you.
bDo not believe them,
Even though they speak1 smooth words to you.
I have given the dearly beloved of My soul into the hand of her enemies.
It cries out against Me;
Therefore I have ahated it.
The vultures all around are against her.
Come, assemble all the beasts of the field,
aBring them to devour!
They have ctrodden My portion underfoot;
They have made My1 pleasant portion a desolate wilderness.

Jeremiah 12:8
is unto me—is become unto Me: behaves towards Me as a lion which roars against a man, so that he withdraws from the place where he hears it: so I withdrew from My people, once beloved, but now an object of abhorrence because of their rebellious cries against Me.
