Bible verse
Like a hunted gazelle, like a sheep without a shepherd, each will return to his own people, each will flee to his native land.
Isaiah 13:14 · BSB
The verses around it, from Isaiah 13.
10 For the stars of heaven and their constellations will not give their light. The rising sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light.
11 I will punish the world for its evil and the wicked for their iniquity. I will end the haughtiness of the arrogant and lay low the pride of the ruthless.
12 I will make man scarcer than pure gold, and mankind rarer than the gold of Ophir.
13 Therefore I will make the heavens tremble, and the earth will be shaken from its place at the wrath of the LORD of Hosts on the day of His burning anger.
14 Like a hunted gazelle, like a sheep without a shepherd, each will return to his own people, each will flee to his native land.
15 Whoever is caught will be stabbed, and whoever is captured will die by the sword.
16 Their infants will be dashed to pieces before their eyes, their houses will be looted, and their wives will be ravished.
17 Behold, I will stir up against them the Medes, who have no regard for silver and no desire for gold.
18 Their bows will dash young men to pieces; they will have no mercy on the fruit of the womb; they will not look with pity on the children.
