Prophecy Concerning Israel's Shepherds And Sheep

14 I will feed them in right good pastures, and upon the high mountains of Israel shall their folds be. There shall they lie in a good fold, and in a fat pasture shall they feed: even upon the mountains of Israel. 15 I will feed my sheep myself, and bring them to their rest, sayeth the LORD God. 16 Such as be lost, will I seek; such as go astray, will I bring again; such as be wounded, will I bind up; such as be weak, will I make strong; such as be fat and well liking, those will I preserve and feed them with the thing that is lawful.
