2 Therefore this is what Jehovah the God of Israel has said against the shepherds who are shepherding my people: “YOU yourselves have scattered my sheep; and YOU kept dispersing them, and YOU have not turned your attention to them.”+

“Here I am turning my attention upon YOU for the badness of YOUR dealings,”+ is the utterance of Jehovah.

6 My sheep* kept straying on all the mountains and on every high hill;+ and on all the surface of the earth my sheep+ were scattered, with no one making a search and with no one seeking to find.

36 On seeing the crowds he felt pity+ for them, because they were skinned* and thrown about like sheep without a shepherd.+
