Jeremiah 10:22 in context

  1. 20My tent has been destroyed,
    and all my cords are broken.
    My children have gone away from me, and they are no more.
    There is no one to spread my tent any more,
    to set up my curtains.
  2. 21For the shepherds have become brutish,
    and have not inquired of Yahweh.
    Therefore they have not prospered,
    and all their flocks have scattered.
  3. 22The voice of news, behold, it comes,
    and a great commotion out of the north country,
    to make the cities of Judah a desolation,
    a dwelling place of jackals.
  4. 23Yahweh, I know that the way of man is not in himself.
    It is not in man who walks to direct his steps.
  5. 24Yahweh, correct me, but gently;
    not in your anger,
    lest you reduce me to nothing.
