Strong's Number H7462 matches the Hebrew רָעָה (rāʿâ),
which occurs 27 times in 22 verses in 'Jer'
in the WLC Hebrew.
The priests quit asking, “Where is the LORD? ”
The experts in the law no longer knew me,
and the rulers rebelled against me.
The prophets prophesied by[fn] Baal
and followed useless idols.
“I will give you shepherds who are loyal to me,[fn] and they will shepherd you with knowledge and skill.
“Shepherds and their flocks will come against her;
they will pitch their tents all around her.
Each will pasture his own portion.
For the shepherds are stupid:
They don’t seek the LORD.
Therefore they have not prospered,
and their whole flock is scattered.
Many shepherds have destroyed my vineyard;
they have trampled my plot of land.
They have turned my desirable plot
into a desolate wasteland.
But I have not run away from being your shepherd,
and I have not longed for the fatal day.
You know my words were spoken in your presence.
The wind will take charge of[fn] all your shepherds,
and your lovers will go into captivity.
Then you will be ashamed and humiliated
because of all your evil.
“Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! ” This is the LORD’s declaration.
“Therefore, this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says about the shepherds who tend my people: You have scattered my flock, banished them, and have not attended to them. I am about to attend to you because of your evil acts” — this is the LORD’s declaration.
“I will raise up shepherds over them who will tend them. They will no longer be afraid or discouraged, nor will any be missing.” This is the LORD’s declaration.
Wail, you shepherds, and cry out.
Roll in the dust, you leaders of the flock.
Because the days of your slaughter have come,
you will fall and become shattered like a precious vase.
Flight will be impossible for the shepherds,
and escape, for the leaders of the flock.
Hear the sound of the shepherds’ cry,
the wail of the leaders of the flock,
for the LORD is destroying their pasture.
Nations, hear the word of the LORD,
and tell it among the far off coasts and islands!
Say, “The one who scattered Israel will gather him.
He will watch over him as a shepherd guards his flock,
“This is what the LORD of Armies says: In this desolate place — without people or animals — and in all its cities there will once more be a grazing land where shepherds may rest flocks.
“Look, it will be like a lion coming from the thickets[fn] of the Jordan to the watered grazing land. I will chase Edom away from her land in a flash. I will appoint whoever is chosen for her. For who is like me? Who will issue me a summons? Who is the shepherd who can stand against me? ”
My people were lost sheep;
their shepherds led them astray,
guiding them the wrong way in the mountains.
They wandered from mountain to hill;
they forgot their resting place.
I will return Israel to his grazing land,
and he will feed on Carmel and Bashan;
he will be satisfied
in the hill country of Ephraim and of Gilead.
