20 My tent is ruined.
    All its ropes are broken.
My children left me.
    They are gone.
No one is left to put up my tent.
    No one is left to fix a shelter for me.
21 The shepherds are stupid.
    They don’t try to find the Lord.
They are not wise,
    so their flocks are scattered and lost.
22 Listen! A loud noise!
    The noise is coming from the north.[a]
It will destroy the cities of Judah.
    Judah will become an empty desert.
    It will be a home for jackals.
