Desolation of Israel
2 Wail, O cypress, for the acedar has fallen,
Because the mighty trees are ruined.
Wail, O oaks of Bashan,
bFor the thick forest has come down.
Because the mighty trees are ruined.
Wail, O oaks of Bashan,
bFor the thick forest has come down.
3 There is the sound of wailing ashepherds!
For the1ir glory is in ruins.
There is the sound of roaring lions!
For the pride of the Jordan is in ruins.
For the1ir glory is in ruins.
There is the sound of roaring lions!
For the pride of the Jordan is in ruins.
Prophecy of the Shepherds
4 Thus says the Lord my God, “Feed the flock for slaughter,
5 whose owners slaughter them and afeel no guilt; those who sell them bsay, ‘Blessed be the Lord, for I am rich’; and their shepherds do cnot pity them.
6 For I will no longer pity the inhabitants of the land,” says the Lord. “But indeed I will give everyone into his neighbor’s hand and into the hand of his king. They shall1 attack the land, and I will not deliver them from their hand.”
7 So I fed the flock for slaughter,1 in particular athe poor of the flock. I took for myself two staffs: the one I called2 Beauty, and the other I called3 Bonds; and I fed the flock.
8 I1 dismissed the three shepherds ain one month. My soul loathed them, and their soul also abhorred me.
