Jeremiah 23:1-4

The Righteous Branch

1 aWoe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture!” declares the Lord. 2Therefore thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, concerning bthe shepherds who care for my people: “You have scattered my flock and have driven them away, and you have not attended to them. cBehold, I will attend to you for your evil deeds, declares the Lord. 3 dThen I will gather the remnant of my flock eout of all the countries where I have driven them, and I will bring them back to their fold, fand they shall be fruitful and multiply. 4 gI will set shepherds over them who will care for them, and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall any be missing, declares the Lord.
