Jeremiah 10:21-23

World English Bible

²¹ For the shepherds have become brutish,
    and have not inquired of Yahweh.
Therefore they have not prospered,
    and all their flocks have scattered.
²² The voice of news, behold, it comes,
    and a great commotion out of the north country,
to make the cities of Judah a desolation,
    a dwelling place of jackals.
²³ Yahweh, I know that the way of man is not in himself.
    It is not in man who walks to direct his steps.
