The flock do not the shepherds feed? 3The fat ye do eat, and the wool ye put on, The fed one ye slaughter, the flock ye feed not. 4The weak ye have not strengthened, And the sick one ye have not healed, And the broken ye have not bound up, And the driven away have not brought back, And the lost ye have not sought, And with might ye have ruled them and with rigour. 5And they are scattered from want of a shepherd, And are for food to every beast of the field, Yea, they are scattered. 6Go astray do My flock on all the mountains, And on every high hill, And on all the face of the land have My flock been scattered, And there is none inquiring, and none seeking. 7Therefore, shepherds, hear a word of Jehovah: 8I live--an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, If not, because of My flock being for a prey, Yea, My flock is for food to every beast of the field, Because there is no shepherd, And My shepherds have not sought My flock, And the shepherds do feed themselves, And My flock they have not fed. 9Therefore, O shepherds, hear a word of Jehovah: 10Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am against the shepherds, And have required My flock from their hand, And caused them to cease from feeding the flock, And no more do the shepherds feed themselves, And I have delivered My flock from their mouth, And they are not to them for food. 11For thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I--even I, have required My flock, And I have sought it out. 12As a shepherd's searching of his drove, In the day of his being in the midst of his scattered flock, so I do seek My flock, And have delivered them out of all places, Whither they have been scattered, In a day of cloud and thick darkness. 13And brought them out from the peoples, And have gathered them from the lands, And brought them unto their own ground, And have fed them on mountains of Israel, By streams, and by all dwellings of the land. 14With good pasture I do feed them, And on mountains of the high place of Israel is their habitation, There do they lie down in a good habitation, And fat pastures they enjoy on mountains of Israel. 15I feed My flock, and cause them to lie down, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah. 16The lost I seek, and the driven away bring back, And the broken I bind up, and the sick I strengthen, And the fat and the strong I destroy, I feed it with judgment. 17And you, My flock, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am judging between sheep and sheep, Between rams and he-goats. 18Is it a little thing for you--the good pasture ye enjoy, And the remnant of your pasture ye tread down with your feet, And a depth of waters ye do drink, And the remainder with your feet ye trample, 19And My flock the trodden thing of your feet consumeth, And the trampled thing of your feet drinketh? 20Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah to them: Lo, I--even I, have judged between fat sheep and lean sheep. 21Because with side and with shoulder ye thrust away, And with your horns push all the diseased, Till ye have scattered them to the out-place, 22And I have given safety to My flock, And they are not any more for prey, And I have judged between sheep and sheep. 23And have raised up over them one shepherd, And he hath fed them--my servant David, He doth feed them, and he is their shepherd, 24And I, Jehovah, I am their God, And My servant David prince in their midst, I, Jehovah, have spoken. 25And I have made for them a covenant of peace, And caused evil beasts to cease out of the land, And they have dwelt in a wilderness confidently, And they have slept in forests. 26And I have given them, and the suburbs of my hill, a blessing, And caused the shower to come down in its season, Showers of blessing they are. 27And given hath the tree of the field its fruit, And the land doth give her increase, And they have been on their land confident, And they have known that I am Jehovah, In My breaking the bands of their yoke, And I have delivered them from the hand of those laying service on them. 28And they are no more a prey to nations, And the beast of the earth devoureth them not, And they have dwelt confidently, And there is none troubling. 29And I have raised for them a plant for renown, And they are no more consumed by hunger in the land, And they bear no more the shame of the nations. 30And they have known that I, Jehovah, their God, am with them, And they--the house of Israel--My people, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah. 31And ye, My flock, the flock of My pasture, Men ye are --I am your God, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!' ‹Previous chapterEzekiel 33Next chapterEzekiel 35›Similar passagesBy tradition and source labelFind similarCompare selectedCompare with similarAsk Deep ThoughtSelect passages to search for parallels.VersionsEzekiel 34 across 9 versionsShow all 9WEB - World English BibleKJV - King James VersionASV - American Standard VersionDarby - Darby BibleYLT - Young's Literal TranslationWebster - Webster BibleGeneva - Geneva BibleDouay - Douay-Rheims ChallonerRV1909 - Reina-Valera 1909Tap any verse to select it, then compare selected passages or ask Deep Thought.
