Howl, ye shepherds, and cry; and wallow yourselves {in the ashes}, ye principal of the flock: for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions are accomplished; and ye shall fall like a pleasant vessel. {the days...: Heb. your days for slaughter} {a pleasant...: Heb. a vessel of desire}
Wail, 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.
