12 Over all the desert roads
    destroyers march;
        for the sword of the Lord devours
    from one end of the land to the other;
        no one is safe.
13 They have sown wheat and reaped weeds;
    they have worn themselves out for nothing.
They will be ashamed of their[a] harvest
    on account of the Lord’s fierce anger.

14 The Lord proclaims: The evil nations have seized the land[b] that I gave my people Israel. I’m going to dig them up from their own lands, and I will dig up the people of Judah from among them.
