24:012:005 If thou hast run with the footmen, and they have wearied thee,
           then how canst thou contend with horses? and if in the land of
           peace, wherein thou trustedst, they wearied thee, then how
           wilt thou do in the swelling of Jordan?

24:012:006 For even thy brethren, and the house of thy father, even they
           have dealt treacherously with thee; yea, they have called a
           multitude after thee:  believe them not, though they speak fair
           words unto thee.

24:012:007 I have forsaken mine house, I have left mine heritage; I have
           given the dearly beloved of my soul into the hand of her
           enemies.

24:012:008 Mine heritage is unto me as a lion in the forest; it crieth
           out against me:  therefore have I hated it.

24:012:009 Mine heritage is unto me as a speckled bird, the birds round
           about are against her; come ye, assemble all the beasts of the
           field, come to devour.

24:012:010 Many pastors have destroyed my vineyard, they have trodden my
           portion under foot, they have made my pleasant portion a
           desolate wilderness.

24:012:011 They have made it desolate, and being desolate it mourneth
           unto me; the whole land is made desolate, because no man
           layeth it to heart.

24:012:012 The spoilers are come upon all high places through the
           wilderness:  for the sword of the lord shall devour from the
           one end of the land even to the other end of the land:  no
           flesh shall have peace.

24:012:013 They have sown wheat, but shall reap thorns:  they have put
           themselves to pain, but shall not profit:  and they shall be
           ashamed of your revenues because of the fierce anger of the
           lord.

24:012:014 Thus saith the lord against all mine evil neighbours, that
           touch the inheritance which I have caused my people Israel to
           inherit; Behold, I will pluck them out of their land, and
           pluck out the house of Judah from among them.

24:012:015 And it shall come to pass, after that I have plucked them out
           I will return, and have compassion on them, and will bring
           them again, every man to his heritage, and every man to his
           land.

24:012:016 And it shall come to pass, if they will diligently learn the
           ways of my people, to swear by my name, The lord liveth; as
           they taught my people to swear by Baal; then shall they be
           built in the midst of my people.

24:012:017 But if they will not obey, I will utterly pluck up and destroy
           that nation, saith the lord.

24:013:001 Thus saith the lord unto me, Go and get thee a linen girdle,
           and put it upon thy loins, and put it not in water.
