וְהָ֣יָה חֶ֗בֶל לִשְׁאֵרִ֛ית בֵּ֥ית יְהוּדָ֖ה עֲלֵיהֶ֣ם יִרְע֑וּן בְּבָתֵּ֣י אַשְׁקְל֗וֹן בָּעֶ֙רֶב֙ יִרְבָּצ֔וּן כִּ֧י יִפְקְדֵ֛ם יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵיהֶ֖ם וְשָׁ֥ב שבותם [שְׁבִיתָֽם׃]
Wilayah itu akan menjadi bagian bagi sisa kaum Yehuda; di sana mereka akan menggembala, dan pada waktu petang mereka akan berbaring di rumah-rumah Askelon, sebab Yang Mahakekal, Allah mereka, akan mengingat mereka dan mengembalikan para tawanan mereka.
Song of Songs
[(The Congregation of Israel says to G-d):] Tell me, [You] whom my soul loves, how will You graze [Your flock among these wolves, the nations of the exile]? How will You make [them] lie down in the afternoon [of the exile? (the afternoon being a particularly difficult time for sheep)]. For why shall I be enwrapped [to the lip like a mourner at the plight of my sheep] among the flocks of Your neighbors [i.e., among the hordes of the nations, who rely on other gods]?
