Jeremiah 10:22 Context
20My Tabernacle is spoyled, and all my cordes are broken: my children are gone foorth of me, and they are not: there is none to stretch foorth my tent any more, and to set vp my curtaines. 21For the Pastours are become brutish, and haue not sought the Lord: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flockes shall be scattered. 22Behold, the noise of the bruit is come, and a great commotion out of the North countrey, to make the cities of Iudah desolate, and a denne of dragons. 23¶ O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himselfe: it is not in man that walketh, to direct his steps. 24O Lord, correct mee, but with iudgement, not in thine anger, lest thou bring me to nothing.
