Jeremiah 50:6-8

Living Bible

⁶ My people have been lost sheep. Their shepherds led them astray and then turned them loose in the mountains. They lost their way and didn’t remember how to get back to the fold. ⁷ All who found them devoured them and said, “We are permitted to attack them freely, for they have sinned against the Lord, the God of justice, the hope of their fathers.”

⁸ But now, flee from Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans; lead my people home again.
