I have given the dearly beloved of My soul into the hand of her enemies.
I have given the dearly beloved of My soul into the hand of her enemies.
8 My heritage is to Me like a lion in the forest;
It cries out against Me;
Therefore I have ahated it.
It cries out against Me;
Therefore I have ahated it.
9 My1 heritage is to Me like a speckled vulture;
The vultures all around are against her.
Come, assemble all the beasts of the field,
aBring them to devour!

11 They have made it adesolate;
Desolate, it mourns to Me;
The whole land is made desolate,
Because bno one takes it to heart.
Desolate, it mourns to Me;
The whole land is made desolate,
Because bno one takes it to heart.
