Scattered on the mountains,

Like sheep which have no shepherd.

Let each of them return to his house in peace.’”

“My people have become lost sheep;

Their shepherds have led them astray.

They have made them turn aside on the mountains;
They have gone along from mountain to hill
And have forgotten their resting place.

For the teraphim speak iniquity,
And the diviners see lying visions
And tell false dreams;
They comfort in vain.
Therefore the people wander like sheep,
They are afflicted, because there is no shepherd.

Seeing the people, He felt compassion for them, because they were distressed and dispirited like sheep without a shepherd.
