¹⁹ How terrible it will be for me!
    I’ve been wounded!
    And my wound can’t be healed!
In spite of that, I said to myself,
    “I’m sick. But I’ll have to put up with it.”
²⁰ Jerusalem is like a tent that has been destroyed.
    All its ropes have snapped.
My people have gone away from me.
    Now no one is left to set up my tent.
    I have no one to set up my shelter.
²¹ The leaders of my people are like shepherds
    who don’t have any sense.
    They don’t ask the Lord for advice.
That’s why they don’t succeed.
    And that’s why their whole flock
    is scattered like sheep.
