The Lord’s Promises

10 Ask the Lord for rain in the springtime.
    The Lord makes the clouds.
He sends the showers.
    And he gives everyone green fields.
Idols tell lies.
    Fortune-tellers see false visions.
They tell about false dreams.
    The comfort they give is worth nothing.
So the people are like lost sheep.
    They are abused because there is no shepherd.

The Lord says, “I am angry at my shepherds.
    I will punish the leaders.
I, the Lord of heaven’s armies, will care
    for my flock, which is the people of Judah.
    I will make them like my proud war horses.
