Jeremiah 10:19-21
1599 Geneva Bible
19 Woe is me for my destruction, and my grievous plague: but I thought, Yet it [a]is my sorrow, and I will bear it.
20 [b]My Tabernacle is destroyed, and all my cords are broken: my children are gone from me, and are not: there is none to spread out my tent anymore, and to set up my curtains.
21 For the Pastors [c]are become beasts, and have not sought the Lord: therefore have they none understanding: and all the flocks of their pastures are scattered.

Jeremiah 10:19-21
New International Version
19 Woe to me because of my injury!
My wound(A) is incurable!
Yet I said to myself,
“This is my sickness, and I must endure(B) it.”
20 My tent(C) is destroyed;
all its ropes are snapped.
My children are gone from me and are no more;(D)
no one is left now to pitch my tent
or to set up my shelter.
21 The shepherds(E) are senseless(F)
and do not inquire of the Lord;(G)
so they do not prosper(H)
and all their flock is scattered.(I)
