“My people have become lost sheep. Their shepherds have led them the wrong way. They have made them turn away on the mountains. They have gone from mountain to hill and have forgotten their resting place. All who found them have destroyed them.

Go from the land of the Babylonians. Be like male goats that go before the flock.
