“And they were scattered, because there is no shepherd: and they became meat to all the beasts of the field, when they were scattered.”
My sheep wandered over all the mountains, and on every high hill; my sheep were scattered over all the face of the earth, and there was no one to search or seek for them, emphasizing the abandonment: sheep dispersed across wilderness with no one to recover them. The absence of searching contrasts with God's shepherding, which involves active seeking.
