13. The boar out of the wood doth waste it. Such
creatures are famous for rending and devouring vines. Fierce peoples,
comparable to wild swine of the forest, warred with the Jewish nation, until
its was gored and torn like a vine destroyed by greedy hogs. And the wild beast of the field doth devour it. First one foe and then another wreaked
vengeance on the nation, neither did God interpose to chase them away. Ruin
followed ruin. See what evils follow in the train of sin, and how terrible a
thing it is for a people to be forsaken by God.
