Jeremiah 50:5-7
American Standard Version
5 They shall inquire concerning Zion with their faces [a]thitherward, saying, Come ye, and [b]join yourselves to Jehovah in an everlasting covenant that shall not be forgotten.
6 My people have been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray; they have turned them away on the mountains; they have gone from mountain to hill; they have forgotten their resting-place. 7 All that found them have devoured them; and their adversaries said, We are not guilty, because they have sinned against Jehovah, the habitation of righteousness, even Jehovah, the hope of their fathers.

Jeremiah 50:5-7
New International Version
5 They will ask the way(A) to Zion
and turn their faces toward it.
They will come(B) and bind themselves to the Lord
in an everlasting covenant(C)
that will not be forgotten.
6 “My people have been lost sheep;(D)
their shepherds(E) have led them astray(F)
and caused them to roam on the mountains.
They wandered over mountain and hill(G)
and forgot their own resting place.(H)
7 Whoever found them devoured(I) them;
their enemies said, ‘We are not guilty,(J)
for they sinned against the Lord, their verdant pasture,
the Lord, the hope(K) of their ancestors.’
