Jeremiah 50:6-8

International Standard Version

⁶ My people have become lost sheep.
    Their shepherds have led them astray,
        turning them toward the mountains.
They go from mountain to hill.
    They have forgotten their resting place.
⁷ All who find them devour them,
    but their enemies say, ‘We’re not guilty,
because they have sinned against
    the Lord, the habitation of righteousness,
        the Lord, the hope of their ancestors.’
⁸ Move away from the middle of Babylon,
    and go out of the land of the Chaldeans.
        Be like male goats at the head^[a] of the flock.
