Jeremiah 10:19-21

Tree of Life Version

¹⁹ Oy to me because of my brokenness!
    My wound is incurable.
    Yet I said, “This is simply a sickness
        and I must bear it.”

²⁰ “My tent is destroyed
        and all my ropes are snapped.
    My children are gone from me
        and are no more.
    No one is left to stretch out my tent
        or set up my tent curtains.
²¹ For the shepherds are stupid!
    They have not sought Adonai.
    Therefore they have not acted wisely
    and all their flocks are scattered.”
