The idols(A) speak deceitfully,
    diviners(B) see visions that lie;

    they give comfort in vain.(D)
Therefore the people wander like sheep
    oppressed for lack of a shepherd.(E)

“My anger burns against the shepherds,
    and I will punish the leaders;(F)
for the Lord Almighty will care
    for his flock, the people of Judah,
    and make them like a proud horse in battle.(G)
From Judah will come the cornerstone,(H)
    from him the tent peg,(I)
from him the battle bow,(J)
