6 Your kindred and your father’s house, even they betray you; they have recruited a force against you. Do not believe them, even when they speak fair words to you.
7 I have abandoned my house,cast off my heritage;The beloved of my soul I have deliveredinto the hand of her foes.
8 My heritage has become for melike a lion in the thicket;She has raised her voice against me,therefore she has incurred my hatred.
9 My heritage is a prey for hyenas,is surrounded by vultures;Come, gather together, all you wild animals,come and eat!
10 Many shepherds have ravaged my vineyard,have trampled down my heritage;My delightful portion they have turnedinto a desert waste.
11 They have made it a mournful waste,desolate before me,Desolate, the whole land,because no one takes it to heart.
12 Upon every height in the wildernessmarauders have appeared.The Lord has a sword that consumesthe land from end to end:no peace for any living thing.
