You have ruled them harshly and brutally.(D) 5 So they were scattered because there was no shepherd,(E) and when they were scattered they became food for all the wild animals.(F) 6 My sheep wandered over all the mountains and on every high hill.(G) They were scattered(H) over the whole earth, and no one searched or looked for them.(I)

4 The diseased have ye not strengthened, neither have ye healed that which was sick, neither have ye bound up that which was broken, neither have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye sought that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty have ye ruled them.
5 And they were scattered, because there is no shepherd: and they became meat to all the beasts of the field, when they were scattered.
6 My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth, and none did search or seek after them.
