Jeremiah 50:4-6

Common English Bible

⁴ In those days and at that time,
        declares the Lord,
    the people of Israel and Judah
        will come out of Babylon^[a] together;
    with weeping they will leave
        as they seek the Lord their God.
⁵ They will search for Zion,
    turning their faces toward it.
They will come^[b] and
    unite with the Lord,
    in an everlasting covenant
        that will never be forgotten.
⁶ My people were lost sheep;
        their shepherds led them astray;
    they deserted them on the mountains,
        where they wandered off among the hills,
                forgetting their resting place.
