Jeremiah 10:20-22
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
20 My tent is ruined,
all its cords are severed.
My children have left me, they are no more:
no one to pitch my tent,
no one to raise its curtains.(A)
21 How stupid are the shepherds!
The Lord they have not sought;
For this reason they have failed,
and all their flocks scattered.(B)
22 Listen! a rumor! here it comes,
a great commotion from the land of the north:
To make the cities of Judah a desolation,
the haunt of jackals.
Jeremiah 10:20-22
New International Version
20 My tent(A) is destroyed;
all its ropes are snapped.
My children are gone from me and are no more;(B)
no one is left now to pitch my tent
or to set up my shelter.
21 The shepherds(C) are senseless(D)
and do not inquire of the Lord;(E)
so they do not prosper(F)
and all their flock is scattered.(G)
22 Listen! The report is coming—
a great commotion from the land of the north!(H)
It will make the towns of Judah desolate,(I)
a haunt of jackals.(J)
