Jeremiah 50:5-7
Amplified Bible
5 They will ask the way to Zion, with their faces in that direction, saying, ‘Come, let us join ourselves to the Lord in an everlasting covenant that will not be forgotten.’
6
“My people have become lost sheep;
Their shepherds have led them astray.
They have made them turn aside [to the seductive places of idolatry] on the mountains.
They have gone along [from one sin to another] from mountain to hill;
They have forgotten their [own] resting place.(A)
7
“All who found them have devoured them;
And their adversaries have said, ‘We are not guilty,
Because they have sinned against the Lord [and are no longer holy to Him], their [true] habitation of righteousness and justice,
Even the Lord, the [confident] hope of their fathers.’
Jeremiah 50:5-7
New International Version

They will come(B) and bind themselves to the Lord
in an everlasting covenant(C)
that will not be forgotten.
6 “My people have been lost sheep;(D)
their shepherds(E) have led them astray(F)
and caused them to roam on the mountains.
They wandered over mountain and hill(G)
and forgot their own resting place.(H)
7 Whoever found them devoured(I) them;
their enemies said, ‘We are not guilty,(J)
for they sinned against the Lord, their verdant pasture,
the Lord, the hope(K) of their ancestors.’
