The accompanying text for this letter goes: »Das spricht der herr der gott Israel zu den hirten die weyden myn volck. Ir handt zerstrewtt myn schar.«.
This is Jeremiah 23,2, which goes like this with Luther: »Darum spricht der HERR, der Gott Israels, von den Hirten, die mein Volk weiden: Ihr habt meine Herde zerstreut [...]«. In English: »Therefore thus saith the LORD God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the LORD«.
