Jeremiah
Chapters 23:1-5
World Messianic Bible
1“Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture!” says the Lord.
2Therefore the Lord, the God of Israel, says against the shepherds who feed my people: “You have scattered my flock, driven them away, and have not visited them. Behold, I will visit on you the evil of your doings,” says the Lord.
3“I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they will be fruitful and multiply.
4I will set up shepherds over them, who will feed them. They will no longer be afraid or dismayed, neither will any be lacking,” says the Lord.
5“Behold, the days come,” says the Lord,“that I will raise to David a righteous Branch,and he will reign as king and deal wisely,and will execute justice and righteousness in the land.
