ગુજરાતીયર્મિયા ૧૨:૧૩
તેઓએ ઘઉં વાવ્યા છે અને કાંટા લણ્યા છે. તેઓએ મહેનત તો ઘણી કરી છે, પણ કશું પ્રાપ્ત થયું નથી. પણ યહોવાહના ઉગ્ર રોષને લીધે તેઓ પોતાના ખેતરની ફસલથી લજ્જિત થશે.
हिन्दीयिर्मयाह १२:१३
उन्होंने गेहूँ तो बोया, परन्तु कँटीली झाड़ियाँ काटीं, उन्होंने कष्ट तो उठाया, परन्तु उससे कुछ लाभ न हुआ। यहोवा के क्रोध के भड़कने के कारण वे अपने खेतों की उपज के विषय में लज्जित हो।”

In context

11They have made it a desolation. It mourns to me, being desolate. The whole land is made desolate, because no one cares.

12Destroyers have come on all the bare heights in the wilderness; for the sword of the LORD devours from the one end of the land even to the other end of the land. No flesh has peace.

13They have sown wheat, and have reaped thorns. They have exhausted themselves, and profit nothing. You will be ashamed of your fruits, because of the LORD’s fierce anger.”

14The LORD says, “Concerning all my evil neighbors, who touch the inheritance which I have caused my people Israel to inherit: Behold, I will pluck them up from off their land, and will pluck up the house of Judah from among them.

15It will happen that after I have plucked them up, I will return and have compassion on them. I will bring them again, every man to his heritage, and every man to his land.
