Ezekiel 34:2-4
2“Son of man, prophesy against the 1shepherds of Israel. Prophesy and say to 2those shepherds, ‘Thus says the Lord 3God, “Woe, shepherds of Israel who have been 45feeding themselves! Should not the shepherds 67feed the flock?
3You 8eat the fat and clothe yourselves with the wool, you 9slaughter the fat sheep without 10feeding the flock.
4Those who are sickly you have not strengthened, the 11diseased you have not healed, 12the broken you have not bound up, the scattered you have not brought back, nor have you 13sought for the lost; but with force and with severity you have dominated them.
