TO SWEAR BY MY NAME THE LORD LIVETH

 jeremiah 12:12-17
THE SPOILERS ARE COME
UPON 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.

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.

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.

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, 
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.
BUT 
IF THEY WILL NOT OBEY,
I WILL UTTERLY
PLUCK UP AND DESTROY
THAT NATION,
SAITH THE LORD.

LOVE
