Ezekiel 34:23-31

23“Then I will 1set over them one 2shepherd, My servant 3David, and he will feed them; he will feed them himself and be their shepherd. 24And I, the Lord, will be their God, and My servant 4David will be prince among them; I the Lord have spoken.

25“I will make a 5covenant of peace with them and 6eliminate harmful beasts from the land so that they may 7live securely in the wilderness and sleep in the woods. 26I will make them and the places around My hill a 8blessing. And I will cause 9showers to come down in their season; they will be showers of 10blessing. 27Also the tree of the field will yield its fruit and the earth will yield its increase, and they will be 11secure on their land. Then they will know that I am the Lord, when I have 12broken the bars of their yoke and have delivered them from the hand of those who enslaved them. 28They will no longer be a prey to the nations, and the beasts of the earth will not devour them; but they will 13live securely, and no one will make them afraid. 29I will establish for them a 14renowned planting place, and they will 15not again be 16victims of famine in the land, and they will not 17endure the insults of the nations anymore. 30Then they will know that 18I, the Lord their God, am with them, and that they, the house of Israel, are My people,” declares the Lord God. 31“As for you, My 19sheep, the 20sheep of My pasture, you are men, and I am your God,” declares the Lord God.
