Jeremiah 10:21-23

Complete Jewish Bible

²¹ The shepherds have become stupid,
they have not consulted Adonai.
This is why they have not prospered,
and all their flocks are scattered.
²² Listen! A noise! It’s coming closer!
A great uproar from the land to the north,
to make the cities of Y’hudah desolate,
a place for jackals to live.
²³ Adonai, I know that the way of humans
is not in their control,
humans are not able
to direct their steps as they walk.
