Jeremiah 50:4-8

New King James Version

⁴ “In those days and in that time,” says the Lord,
“The children of Israel shall come,
^(A)They and the children of Judah together;
^(B)With continual weeping they shall come,
^(C)And seek the Lord their God.
⁵ They shall ask the way to Zion,
With their faces toward it, saying,
‘Come and let us join ourselves to the Lord
In ^(D)a perpetual covenant
That will not be forgotten.’

⁶ “My people have been ^(E)lost sheep.
Their shepherds have led them ^(F)astray;
They have turned them away on ^(G)the mountains.
They have gone from mountain to hill;
They have forgotten their resting place.
⁷ All who found them have ^(H)devoured them;
And ^(I)their adversaries said, ^(J)‘We have not offended,
Because they have sinned against the Lord, ^(K)the habitation of justice,
The Lord, ^(L)the hope of their fathers.’

⁸ “Move^(M) from the midst of Babylon,
Go out of the land of the Chaldeans;
And be like the ^[a]rams before the flocks.
