“My people have been like lost sheep.
    Their shepherds have led them astray.
    They have caused them to wander in the mountains.
They have wandered over mountains and hills.
    They have forgotten that I am their true resting place.
Everyone who found them destroyed them.
    Their enemies said, ‘We aren’t guilty.
They sinned against the Lord.
    He gave them everything they needed.
    He has always been Israel’s hope.’

“People of Judah, run away from Babylon.
    Leave the land of Babylon.
    Be like the goats that lead the flock.
