And [fn]after a considerable ^H7235 time ^H3117, Shua’s ^H7770 daughter ^H1323, the wife ^H802 of Judah ^H3063, died ^H4191. Then Judah ^H3063 was comforted ^H5162, and he went ^H5927 up ^H5927 to his sheepshearers ^H6629 H1494 at Timnah ^H8553, he and his friend ^H7453 Hirah ^H2437 the Adullamite ^H5726.

Then Judah ^H3063 sent ^H7971 the [fn]young ^H1423 H5795 goat ^H1423 H5795 by his friend ^H7453 the Adullamite ^H5726 to take ^H3947 the pledge ^H6162 from the woman’s ^H802 hand ^H3027, but he did not find ^H4672 her.

“I saw ^H7200 all ^H3605 Israel ^H3478

Scattered ^H6327 on the mountains ^H2022,

Like sheep ^H6629 which ^H834 have ^H369 no ^H369 shepherd ^H7462.

And Yahweh ^H3068 said ^H559,

‘These ^H428 have no ^H3808 master ^H113.

Let each ^H376 of them return ^H7725 to his house ^H1004 in peace ^H7965.’”

Then he arose ^H6965 and came ^H935 out ^H6965 and went ^H1980 to Samaria ^H8111. On the way ^H1870, while he was at [fn]Beth-eked ^H1044 of the shepherds ^H7462,

“I saw ^H7200 all ^H3605 Israel ^H3478

Scattered ^H6327 on the mountains ^H2022,

Like sheep ^H6629 which ^H834 have ^H369 no ^H369 shepherd ^H7462;

And Yahweh ^H3068 said ^H559,

‘These ^H428 have no ^H3808 master ^H113.

Let each ^H376 of them return ^H7725 to his house ^H1004 in peace ^H7965.’”

“[fn]Some move ^H5381 the boundaries ^H1367;

They seize ^H1497 and [fn]devour ^H7462 flocks ^H5739.

The words ^H1697 of wise ^H2450 men ^H2450 are like goads ^H1861, and masters ^H1167 of these collections ^H627 are like [fn]well-driven ^H5193 nails ^H4548; they are given ^H5414 by one ^H259 Shepherd ^H7462.

“[fn]If ^H518 you yourself do not know ^H3045,

Most beautiful ^H3303 among women ^H802,

Go ^H3318 forth ^H3318 on the trail ^H6119 of the flock ^H6629

And pasture ^H7462 your young ^H1429 goats ^H1429

By the dwellings ^H4908 of the shepherds ^H7462.

It will never ^H3808 H5331 be inhabited ^H3427 or dwelt ^H7931 in ^H7931 from generation ^H1755 to ^H1755 generation ^H1755;

Nor ^H3808 will the [fn]Arab ^H6163 pitch ^H167 his tent ^H167 there ^H8033,

Nor ^H3808 will shepherds ^H7462 make their flocks lie ^H7257 down ^H7257 there ^H8033.

Because ^H3588 the palace ^H759 has been abandoned ^H5203, the [fn]populated ^H1995 city ^H5892 forsaken ^H5800.

[fn]Hill ^H6076 and watchtower ^H975 have become ^H1961 caves ^H4631 forever ^H5704 H5769,

A joy ^H4885 for wild ^H6501 donkeys ^H6501, a pasture ^H4829 for flocks ^H5739,

Like a shepherd ^H7462 He will shepherd ^H7462 His flock ^H5739;

In His arm ^H2220 He will gather ^H6908 the lambs ^H2924

And carry ^H5375 them in His bosom ^H2436;

He will gently lead ^H5095 the nursing ^H5763 ewes.

Then His people ^H5971 remembered ^H2142 the ancient ^H5769 days ^H3117, of Moses ^H4872.

Where ^H346 is He who brought ^H5927 them up ^H5927 out of the sea ^H3220 with the [fn]shepherds ^H7462 of His flock ^H6629?

Where ^H346 is He who put ^H7760 His Holy ^H6944 Spirit ^H7307 in the midst ^H7130 of [fn]them,

“The priests ^H3548 did not say ^H559, ‘Where ^H346 is Yahweh ^H3068?’

And those who handle ^H8610 the law ^H8451 did not know ^H3045 Me;

The [fn]shepherds ^H7462 also transgressed ^H6586 against Me,

And the prophets ^H5030 prophesied ^H5012 by Baal ^H1168

And walked ^H1980 after ^H310 things that did not profit ^H3276.

God [fn]says ^H559, “If ^H2005 a husband ^H376 divorces ^H7971 his wife ^H802

And she goes ^H1980 from him

And belongs ^H1961 to another ^H312 man ^H376,

Will he still ^H5750 return ^H7725 to her?

Will not that land ^H776 be completely ^H2610 [fn]polluted ^H2610?

But you are a harlot ^H2181 with many ^H7227 [fn]lovers ^H7453;

Yet you turn ^H7725 to Me,” declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068.

“Therefore the showers ^H7241 have been withheld ^H4513,

And the [fn]late ^H4456 rain ^H4456 has not ^H3808 [fn]come ^H1961.

Yet you had ^H1961 a harlot’s ^H802 H2181 forehead ^H4696;

You refused ^H3985 to feel ^H3637 dishonor ^H3637.

“Then I will give ^H5414 you shepherds ^H7462 after My own heart ^H3820, who will [fn]shepherd ^H7462 you on knowledge ^H1844 and understanding ^H7919.

“Shepherds ^H7462 and their flocks ^H5739 will come ^H935 to her;

They will pitch ^H8628 their tents ^H168 [fn]around ^H5439 her;

They will pasture ^H7462 each ^H376 in his [fn]place ^H3027.

For the shepherds ^H7462 have become ^H1197 senseless ^H1197

And have not sought ^H1875 Yahweh ^H3068;

Therefore ^H5921 H3651 they have not prospered ^H7919,

And all ^H3605 their flock ^H4830 is scattered ^H6327.

“Many ^H7227 shepherds ^H7462 have ruined ^H7843 My vineyard ^H3754;

They have trampled ^H947 down ^H947 My portion ^H2513;

They have made ^H5414 My desired ^H2532 portion ^H2513

A desolate ^H8077 wilderness ^H4057.

“The wind ^H7307 will sweep ^H7462 away ^H7462 all ^H3605 your shepherds ^H7462,

And your lovers ^H157 will go ^H1980 into captivity ^H7628;

Then ^H227 you will surely ^H3588 be ^H954 ashamed ^H954 and feel ^H3637 dishonor ^H3637

Because ^H4480 of all ^H3605 your evil ^H7451.

“Woe ^H1945 to the shepherds ^H7462 who are [fn]destroying ^H6 and scattering ^H6327 the sheep ^H6629 of My pasture ^H4830!” declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068.

“Wail ^H3213, you shepherds ^H7462, and cry ^H2199 out ^H2199;

And roll ^H6428 yourselves in ashes, you masters ^H117 of the flock ^H6629;

For the days ^H3117 of your slaughter ^H2873 and your scatterings ^H8600 are being fulfilled ^H4390,

And you will fall ^H5307 like a desirable ^H2532 vessel ^H3627.

“Thus ^H3541 says ^H559 Yahweh ^H3068 of hosts ^H6635, ‘There will again ^H5750 be in this ^H2088 place ^H4725 which is waste ^H2720, without ^H4480 H369 man ^H120 or beast ^H929, and in all ^H3605 its cities ^H5892, [fn]an abode ^H5116 of shepherds ^H7462 who cause their flocks ^H6629 to lie ^H7257 down.

“My people ^H5971 have become ^H1961 lost ^H6 sheep ^H6629;

Their shepherds ^H7462 have led ^H8582 them astray ^H8582.

They have made them turn ^H7725 away ^H7725 on the mountains ^H2022;

They have gone ^H1980 along from mountain ^H2022 to hill ^H1389

And have forgotten ^H7911 their resting ^H7258 place ^H7258.

“Behold ^H2009, one will come ^H5927 up ^H5927 like a lion ^H738 from the [fn]thicket ^H1347 of the Jordan ^H3383 to an enduring ^H386 pasture ^H5116; for in an instant ^H7280 I will make them run ^H7323 away ^H4480 from it, and whoever ^H4310 is chosen ^H977 I will appoint ^H6485 over ^H413 it. For who ^H4310 is like ^H3644 Me, and who ^H4310 will [fn]summon ^H3259 Me into court? And who ^H4310 then ^H2088 is the shepherd ^H7462 who ^H834 can stand ^H5975 before ^H6440 Me?”

And with you I shatter ^H5310 the shepherd ^H7462 and his flock ^H5739,

And with you I shatter ^H5310 the farmer ^H406 and his pair ^H6776 of oxen,

And with you I shatter ^H5310 governors ^H6346 and prefects ^H5461.

Therefore ^H3651, you shepherds ^H7462, hear ^H8085 the word ^H1697 of Yahweh ^H3068:
