Commentary for Jeremiah 50:6
צֹ֤אן אֹֽבְדוֹת֙ היה [הָי֣וּ] עַמִּ֔י רֹעֵיהֶ֣ם הִתְע֔וּם הָרִ֖ים שובבים [שֽׁוֹבְב֑וּם] מֵהַ֤ר אֶל־גִּבְעָה֙ הָלָ֔כוּ שָׁכְח֖וּ רִבְצָֽם׃
My people hath been lost sheep; Their shepherds have caused them to go astray, They have turned them away on the mountains; They have gone from mountain to hill, They have forgotten their resting-place.
Rashi on Jeremiah
their shepherds caused them to stray Their kings caused them to stray away from Me.
