Jeremiah 10:22

Read in context

Jeremiah 10:20–24 · Berean Standard Bible

20 My tent is destroyed, and all its ropes are snapped. My sons have departed from me and are no more. I have no one left to pitch my tent or set up my curtains.

21 For the shepherds have become senseless; they do not seek the LORD. Therefore they have not prospered, and all their flock is scattered.

22 Listen! The sound of a report is coming— a great commotion from the land to the north. The cities of Judah will be made a desolation, a haunt for jackals.

23 I know, O LORD, that a man’s way is not his own; no one who walks directs his own steps.

24 Correct me, O LORD, but only with justice— not in Your anger, or You will bring me to nothing.
