Ezekiel 34:6

My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth, and none did search or seek after them.

KJV

Erraverunt greges mei in cunctis montibus, et in universo colle excelso : et super omnem faciem terræ dispersi sunt greges mei, et non erat qui requireret : non erat, inquam, qui requireret.

Vulgate

καὶ διεσπάρη μου τὰ πρόβατα ἐν παντὶ ὄρει καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶν βουνὸν ὑψηλόν, καὶ ἐπὶ προσώπου τῆς γῆς διεσπάρη καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ ἐκζητῶν οὐδὲ ὁ ἀποστρέφων.

LXX

My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, my sheep were scattered upon all the face of the earth; and there was none that did search or seek after them.
