Jeremiah 50:17-19
International Children’s Bible

17 “The people of Israel are like a flock of sheep that are scattered.
    They are like sheep that have been chased away by lions.
The first lion to eat them up
    was the king of Assyria.
The last lion to crush their bones
    was Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.”

18 So this is what the Lord of heaven’s armies, the God of Israel, says:

“I will punish the king of Babylon and his country.
    I will punish him as I punished the king of Assyria.
19 But I will bring the people of Israel back to their own pasture.
    They will eat on Mount Carmel and in Bashan.
They will eat and be full.
    They will eat on the hills of Ephraim and Gilead.”

Jeremiah 50:17-19
New International Version

17 “Israel is a scattered flock(A)
    that lions(B) have chased away.
The first to devour(C) them
    was the king(D) of Assyria;
the last to crush their bones(E)
    was Nebuchadnezzar(F) king(G) of Babylon.”

18 Therefore this is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says:

“I will punish the king of Babylon and his land
    as I punished the king(H) of Assyria.(I)
19 But I will bring(J) Israel back to their own pasture,
    and they will graze on Carmel and Bashan;
their appetite will be satisfied(K)
    on the hills(L) of Ephraim and Gilead.(M)
