Jeremiah 25:34 in context

  1. 32Yahweh of Armies says,
    “Behold, evil will go out from nation to nation,
    and a great storm will be raised up from the uttermost parts of the earth.”
  2. 33The slain of Yahweh will be at that day from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth. They won’t be lamented. They won’t be gathered or buried. They will be dung on the surface of the ground.
  3. 34Wail, you shepherds, and cry.
    Wallow in dust, you leader of the flock;
    for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions have fully come,
    and you will fall like fine pottery.
  4. 35The shepherds will have no way to flee.
    The leader of the flock will have no escape.
  5. 36A voice of the cry of the shepherds,
    and the wailing of the leader of the flock,
    for Yahweh destroys their pasture.
