NASB
"For the shepherds have become stupid And have not sought the LORD; Therefore they have not prospered, And all their flock is scattered."
— Jeremiah 10:21, NASB
“For the pastors are become brutish, and have not sought the Lord: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flocks shall be scattered.”
“For the shepherds are become brutish, and have not inquired of Jehovah: therefore they have not prospered, and all their flocks are scattered. ”
“For the shepherds are become brutish, and have not inquired of Yahweh: therefore they have not prospered, and all their flocks are scattered.”
“For our leaders are stupid. They have not sought the LORD’s advice. So they do not act wisely, and the people they are responsible for have all been scattered.”
“Because the pastors have done foolishly, and have not sought the Lord: therefore have they not understood, and all their flock is scattered.”
“For the keepers of the sheep have become like beasts, not looking to the Lord for directions: so they have not done wisely and all their flocks have been put to flight.”
“For the pastors are become brutish, and have not sought the Lord: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flocks shall be scattered.”
For thus says the LORD, "Behold, I am slinging out the inhabitants of the land At this time, And will cause them distress, That they may be found."
Woe is me, because of my injury! My wound is incurable. But I said, "Truly this is a sickness, And I must bear it."
My tent is destroyed, And all my ropes are broken; My sons have gone from me and are no more. There is no one to stretch out my tent again Or to set up my curtains.
For the shepherds have become stupid And have not sought the LORD; Therefore they have not prospered, And all their flock is scattered.
The sound of a report! Behold, it comes-- A great commotion out of the land of the north-- To make the cities of Judah A desolation, a haunt of jackals.
I know, O LORD, that a man's way is not in himself, Nor is it in a man who walks to direct his steps.
Correct me, O LORD, but with justice; Not with Your anger, or You will bring me to nothing.
