The lost have ye not sought, but churlishly and cruelly have ye ruled them. 5 Thus are they scattered here and there without a shepherd: yea, all the beasts of the field devour them, and they go astray. 6 My sheep go wandering upon all mountains, and upon every high hill. Yea they be scattered abroad in all fields, and there is no man, that careth for them, or seeketh after them.
