“My people have become (A)lost sheep;
(B)Their shepherds have led them astray.
They have made them turn aside on the (C)mountains.
They have gone from mountain to hill,
They have forgotten their (D)resting place.
All who found them have devoured them;
And their adversaries have said, ‘(E)We are not guilty,
Since they have sinned against the Lord who is the (F)habitation of righteousness,
The Lord, the (G)hope of their fathers.’

“Wander away from the (H)midst of Babylon
And [a]go out from the land of the Chaldeans;
Be like male goats [b]at the head of the flock.
