Bible verse
Shepherds and their flocks will come against her; they will pitch their tents all around her, each tending his own portion:
Jeremiah 6:3 · BSB
The verses around it, from Jeremiah 6.
1 “Run for cover, O sons of Benjamin; flee from Jerusalem! Sound the ram’s horn in Tekoa; send up a signal over Beth-haccherem, for disaster looms from the north, even great destruction.
2 Though she is beautiful and delicate, I will destroy the Daughter of Zion.
3 Shepherds and their flocks will come against her; they will pitch their tents all around her, each tending his own portion:
4 ‘Prepare for battle against her; rise up, let us attack at noon. Woe to us, for the daylight is fading; the evening shadows grow long.
5 Rise up, let us attack by night and destroy her fortresses!’”
6 For this is what the LORD of Hosts says: “Cut down the trees and raise a siege ramp against Jerusalem. This city must be punished; there is nothing but oppression in her midst.
7 As a well gushes its water, so she pours out her evil. Violence and destruction resound in her; sickness and wounds are ever before Me.
