1 Kings 22:17

And he said, I saw all Israel scattered upon the hills, as sheep that have not a shepherd: and the LORD said, These have no master: let them return every man to his house in peace.

KJV

Et ille ait : Vidi cunctum Israël dispersum in montibus, quasi oves non habentes pastorem. Et ait Dominus : Non habent isti dominum : revertatur unusquisque in domum suam in pace.

Vulgate

καὶ εἶπεν Οὐχ οὕτως· ἑώρακα τὸν πάντα Ἰσραὴλ διεσπαρμένους ἐν τοῖς ὄρεσιν ὡς ποίμνιον ᾧ οὐκ ἔστι ποιμήν· καὶ εἶπεν Κύριος Οὐ Κύριος τούτοις θεός; ἕκαστος εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ ἐν εἰρήνῃ ἀναστρεφέτω.

LXX

And he said, I saw all Israel scattered upon the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd: and Jehovah said, These have no master; let them return every man to his house in peace.
