Ezekiel Chapter 34
34:1 | And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, |
34:2 | Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of ![]() ![]() ![]() |
34:3 | Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe you with the wool, ye kill them that are fed: [but] ye feed not the flock. |
34:4 | The diseased have ye not strengthened, neither have ye healed that which was sick, neither have ye bound up [that which was] broken, neither have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye sought that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty have ye ruled them. |
34:5 | And they were scattered, because [there is] no shepherd: and they became ![]() |
34:6 | My ![]() ![]() ![]() |
34:7 | Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD; |
34:8 | [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely because my flock became a prey, and my flock became ![]() |
34:9 | Therefore, O ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD; |
34:10 | Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I [am] against the shepherds; and I will require my flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; for I will deliver my flock from their mouth, that they may not be ![]() |
34:11 | For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, [even] I, will both search my ![]() |
34:12 | As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
34:13 | And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land, and feed them upon the mountains of ![]() |
34:14 | I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high mountains of ![]() ![]() |
34:15 | I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie down, saith the Lord GOD. |
34:16 | I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven away, and will bind up [that which was] broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with judgment. |
34:17 | And [as for] you, O my flock, thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I judge between ![]() ![]() |
34:18 | [Seemeth it] a small thing unto you to have eaten up the good pasture, but ye must tread down with your ![]() ![]() ![]() |
34:19 | And [as for] my flock, they eat that which ye have trodden with your ![]() ![]() ![]() |
34:20 | Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD unto them; Behold, I, [even] I, will judge between the fat ![]() ![]() |
34:21 | Because ye have thrust with side and with shoulder, and pushed all the diseased with your horns, till ye have scattered them abroad; |
34:22 | Therefore will I ![]() ![]() ![]() |
34:23 | And I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, [even] my servant David; he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd. |
34:24 | And I the LORD will be their God, and my servant David a prince among them; I the LORD have spoken [it]. |
34:25 | And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause the ![]() |
34:26 | And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing. |
34:27 | And the tree of the field shall yield her fruit, and the ![]() |
34:28 | And they shall no more be a prey to the heathen, neither shall the beast of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and none shall make [them] afraid. |
34:29 | And I will raise up for them a plant of renown, and they shall be no more consumed with hunger in the land, neither bear the shame of the heathen any more. |
34:30 | Thus shall they know that I the LORD their God [am] with them, and [that] they, [even] the ![]() ![]() |
34:31 | And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, [are] men, [and] I [am] your God, saith the Lord GOD. |
