Jeremiah 50:5-7
Good News Translation
5 They will ask the way to Zion and then go in that direction. They will make an eternal covenant with me and never break it.
6 “My people are like sheep whose shepherds have let them get lost in the mountains. They have wandered like sheep from one mountain to another, and they have forgotten where their home is. 7 They are attacked by all who find them. Their enemies say, ‘They sinned against the Lord, and so what we have done is not wrong. Their ancestors trusted in the Lord, and they themselves should have remained faithful to him.’

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.

and forgot their own resting place.(H)

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.’
