Jeremiah 50:5-7
New American Standard Bible 1995
5 They will (A)ask for the way to Zion, turning their faces [a]in its direction; [b]they [c]will come that they may join themselves to the Lord in an (B)everlasting covenant that will not be forgotten.
6 “My people have become (C)lost sheep;
(D)Their shepherds have led them astray.
They have made them turn aside on the (E)mountains;
They have gone along from mountain to hill
And have forgotten their (F)resting place.
7 “All who came upon them have devoured them;
And their adversaries have said, ‘(G)We are not guilty,
Inasmuch as they have sinned against the Lord who is the (H)habitation of righteousness,
Even the Lord, the (I)hope of their fathers.’
