Jeremiah 50:1-8
1The wordH1697 whichH834 the LordH3068 spokeH1696 concerningH413 1BabylonH894, the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778, throughH3027 JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030:2“2DeclareH5046 and proclaimH8085 among the nationsH1471. ProclaimH8085 it and 3liftH5375 upH5375 a flagH5251, Do not concealH3582 it. SayH559, ‘4BabylonH894 has been capturedH3920, 5BelH1078 has been putH954 toH954 shameH954, 6MardukH4781 has beenH2865 7shatteredH2865; Her 8idolsH6091 have been putH954 toH954 shameH954, her imagesH1544 have beenH2865 shatteredH2865.’ 3For a nationH1471 has comeH5927 upH5927 againstH5921 her from the 9northH6828; it will makeH7896 her landH776 10an objectH8047 ofH8047 horrorH8047, and there will be 11noH3808 inhabitantH3427 in it. WhetherH4480 peopleH120 orH5704 animalsH929, they have wanderedH5110 offH5110, they have goneH1980!
4“In thoseH1992 daysH3117 and at that timeH6256,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 will comeH935, they and the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063 12asH3164 wellH3164; they will goH1980 along 13weepingH1058 as they goH1980, and it will be 14the LordH3068 their GodH430 whom they will seekH1245. 5They will 15askH7592 for the wayH1870 to ZionH6726, turning their facesH6440 16in its directionH2008; 17they 18will comeH935 so that they may joinH3867 themselves to the LordH3068 in an 19everlastingH5769 covenantH1285 that will not be forgottenH7911.
6“My peopleH5971 have becomeH1961 20lostH6 sheepH6629; 21Their shepherdsH7462 have ledH8582 them astrayH8582. They have made them turnH7725 asideH7725 on the 22mountainsH2022. They have goneH1980 from mountainH2022 to hillH1389, They have forgottenH7911 their 23restingH7258 placeH7258.7AllH3605 who foundH4672 them have devouredH398 them; And their adversariesH6862 have saidH559, ‘24We are not guiltyH816, SinceH8478H834 they have sinnedH2398 against the LordH3068 who is the 25habitationH5116 of righteousnessH6664, The LordH3068, the 26hopeH4723 of their fathersH1.’
8“WanderH5110 awayH5110 from the 27midstH8432 of BabylonH894 And 28goH3318 outH3318 from the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778; Be like maleH6260 goatsH6260 29at the headH6440 of the flockH6629.
