Jeremiah 50:5-7
Christian Standard Bible
5 They will ask about Zion,
turning their faces to this road.
They will come and join themselves[a] to the Lord
in a permanent covenant(A) that will never be forgotten.
6 My people were lost sheep;(B)
their shepherds led them astray,(C)
guiding them the wrong way in the mountains.(D)
They wandered from mountain to hill;
they forgot their resting place.
7 Whoever found them devoured them.
Their adversaries said, “We’re not guilty;
instead, they have sinned against the Lord,
their righteous grazing land,(E)
the hope of their ancestors,(F) the Lord.”
