Jeremiah 25:34-36
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
34 Howl, you shepherds, and wail!
roll on the ground, leaders of the flock!
The time for your slaughter has come;
like choice rams you shall fall.
35 There is no flight for the shepherds,
no escape for the leaders of the flock.(A)
36 Listen! Wailing from the shepherds,
howling from the leaders of the flock!
For the Lord lays waste their grazing place;
Jeremiah 25:34-36
New International Version
34 Weep and wail, you shepherds;(A)
roll(B) in the dust, you leaders of the flock.
For your time to be slaughtered(C) has come;
you will fall like the best of the rams.[a](D)
35 The shepherds will have nowhere to flee,
the leaders of the flock no place to escape.(E)
36 Hear the cry(F) of the shepherds,(G)
the wailing of the leaders of the flock,
for the Lord is destroying their pasture.
