Ezekiel 34:2-16

2“SonH1121 of manH120, prophesyH5012 againstH5921 the 1shepherdsH7462 of IsraelH3478. ProphesyH5012 and sayH559 to 2those shepherdsH7462, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 3GodH3068 saysH559: “WoeH1945, shepherdsH7462 of IsraelH3478 whoH834 have beenH1961 45feedingH7462 themselves! Should the shepherdsH7462 not 67feedH7462 the flockH6629? 3You 8eatH398 the fatH2459 and clotheH3847 yourselvesH3847 with the woolH6785, you 9slaughterH2076 the fatH1277 sheep 10withoutH3808 feedingH7462 the flockH6629. 4Those who are sicklyH2470 you have not strengthenedH2388, the diseasedH2470 you have not healedH7495, 11the brokenH7665 you have not boundH2280 upH2280, the scatteredH5080 you have not broughtH7725 backH7725, norH3808 have you 12searchedH1245 for the lostH6; but with forceH2394 and with violenceH6531 you have 13dominatedH7287 them. 5They 14scatteredH6327 for lackH1097 of a shepherdH7462, and they becameH1961 15foodH402 for everyH3605 animalH2421 of the fieldH7704 and scatteredH6327. 6My flockH6629 16strayedH7686 through allH3605 the mountainsH2022 and on everyH3605 highH7311 hillH1389; 17My flockH6629 was scatteredH6327 overH5921 allH3605 the surfaceH6440 of the earthH776, and thereH369 wasH369 18noH369 oneH369 to searchH1875 or seekH1245 for them.”’”

7ThereforeH3651, you shepherdsH7462, hearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LordH3068: 8“As I liveH2416,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068, “certainlyH518H3808, becauseH3282 My flockH6629 has becomeH1961 19plunderH957, and My flockH6629 has becomeH1961 foodH402 for allH3605 the animalsH2421 of the fieldH7704 for lackH369 of a shepherdH7462, and My shepherdsH7462 did not searchH1875 for My flockH6629, but rather the shepherdsH7462 fedH7462 themselves and did not feedH7462 My flockH6629, 9thereforeH3651, you shepherdsH7462, hearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LordH3068: 10‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 GodH3068 saysH559: “BeholdH2009, I am 20againstH413 the shepherdsH7462, and I will demandH1875 My 21sheepH6629 22from them and make them 23stopH7673 tendingH7462 sheepH6629. So the shepherdsH7462 will not 24feedH7462 themselves anymoreH5750, but I will 25saveH5337 My sheepH6629 from their mouthH6310, so that they will not be foodH402 for them.”’”

11For the LordH136 GodH3068 saysH559 thisH3541: “BeholdH2009, I MyselfH589 will 26searchH1875 for My sheepH6629 and lookH1239 afterH1239 them. 1227As a shepherdH7462 caresH1243 for his flockH5739 on a dayH3117 when he is amongH8432 his scatteredH6566 28sheepH6629, soH3651 I will 29careH1239 for My 30sheepH6629 and will rescueH5337 them from allH3605 the placesH4725 whereH834H8033 they were scatteredH6327 on a 31cloudyH6051 and gloomyH6205 dayH3117. 13I will bringH3318 them outH3318 from the peoplesH5971 and gatherH6908 them from the countriesH776 and bringH935 them to their own landH127; and I will 32feedH7462 them on the mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478, by the 33streamsH650, and in allH3605 the inhabitedH4186 placesH4186 of the landH776. 14I will feedH7462 them in a 34goodH2896 pastureH4829, and their grazingH5116 placeH5116 will be on the mountainH2022 heightsH4791 of IsraelH3478. ThereH8033 they will lieH7257 downH7257 in a goodH2896 grazingH5116 placeH5116 and feedH7462 in 3536richH8082 pastureH4829 on the mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478. 15I MyselfH589 will 37feedH7462 My flockH6629 and I MyselfH589 will 38leadH7257 them toH7257 restH7257,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068. 16“I will seekH1245 the lostH6, bringH7725 backH7725 the scatteredH5080, bindH2280 upH2280 the brokenH7665, and strengthenH2388 the sickH2470; but the 39fatH8082 and the strongH2389 I will eliminateH8045. I will 40feedH7462 them with judgmentH4941.
