Ezekiel 34:11-24 - The Lord God Will Seek Them Out
11 The Lord Jehovah says: 'I will search for my sheep. I will seek them out. 12 As a shepherd cares for his herd in the day when he is among his scattered sheep, so I will care for my sheep and will deliver them from all the places where they were scattered on a cloudy and gloomy day. 13 I will bring them out from the peoples and gather them from the countries and bring them to their own land. I will feed them on the mountains of Israel. I will feed them by the streams, and in all the inhabited places of the land. 14 I will feed them in a good pasture, and their grazing ground will be on the mountain heights of Israel. There they will lie down on good grazing ground and feed in rich pasture on the mountains of Israel. 15 I will feed my flock and I will lead them to rest, declares the Lord Jehovah. 16 I will seek the lost. I will bring back the scattered. I will bind up the broken and strengthen the sick. The fat and the strong I will destroy. I will feed them with judgment.
17 As for you, my sheep, this is what the Lord Jehovah says: I will judge disputes between one sheep and another, between rams and male goats. 18 Is it not enough for you to feed on the good pasture? Must you trample the rest of the pasture with your feet? You drink clean water. Must you muddy the rest of the water with your feet? 19 Must my sheep eat what your feet have trampled and drink what your feet have muddied?
20 This is what the Lord Jehovah says to them: I will judge disputes between the fat sheep and the skinny sheep. 21 You fat sheep push the skinny sheep with your sides and shoulders. You knock down all the sick sheep with your horns. You have scattered them all over. 22 So I will rescue my sheep, and they will no longer be prey. I will judge between one sheep and another. 23 I will place one shepherd over them, my servant David. He will take care of them. He will take care of them and be their shepherd. 24 I, Jehovah, will be their God, and my servant David will be their prince. I, Jehovah, have spoken!
