13. They have sown wheat but reaped thorns;They have put themselves to pain but do not profit.But be ashamed of your harvestBecause of the fierce anger of the Lord.”
14. Thus says the Lord: “Against all My evil neighbors who 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.
15. Then it shall be, after I have plucked them out, that I will return and have compassion on them and bring them back, everyone to his heritage and everyone to his land.
16. And it shall be, if they will learn carefully the ways of My people, to swear by My name, ‘As the Lord lives,’ as they taught My people to swear by Baal, then they shall be established in the midst of My people.
17. But if they do not obey, I will utterly pluck up and destroy that nation,” says the Lord.
