In those days, and at that time, saith the Lord, the children of Israel shall [a]come, they, and the children of Judah together, going, and [b]weeping shall they go, and seek the Lord their God.

They shall ask the way to Zion, with their faces thitherward, saying, Come, and let us cleave to the Lord in a perpetual covenant that shall not be forgotten.

¶ My people hath been as lost sheep: their [c]shepherds have caused them to go astray, and have turned them away to the mountains: they have gone from [d]mountain to hill, and forgotten their resting place.

All that found them have devoured them, and their enemies said, We offend not, because they have sinned against the Lord, [e]the habitation of justice, even the Lord the hope of their fathers.

[f]Flee from the midst of Babel, and depart out of the land of the Chaldeans, and be ye as the he goats [g]before the flock.

For lo, I will raise and cause to come up against Babel a multitude of mighty nations from the North country, and they shall set themselves in array against her, whereby she shall be taken: their arrows shall be as of a strong man, which is expert, for none shall return in vain.

10 And Chaldea shall be a spoil: all that spoil her, [h]shall be satisfied, saith the Lord.
