Ezekiel 34:11-24 - The Lord God Will Seek Them Out
11 For thus says lord LORD: Behold, I myself, even I, will search for my sheep, and will seek them out. 12 As a shepherd seeks out his flock, in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered abroad, so I will seek out my sheep, and I will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day. 13 And I will bring them out from the peoples, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them into their own land. And I will feed them upon the mountains of Israel, by the watercourses, and in all the inhabited places of the 14 I will feed them with good pasture, and their fold shall be upon the mountains of the height of Israel. There they shall lay down in a good fold, and on fat pasture they shall feed upon the mountains of Israel. 15 I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep, and I will cause them to lay down, says lord LORD. 16 I will seek that which was lost, and will bring back 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 in justic
17 And as for you, O my flock, thus says lord LORD: Behold, I judge between sheep and sheep, the rams and the he-goats. 18 Does it seem a small thing to you to have fed upon the good pasture, but ye must tread down with your feet the residue of your pasture, and to have drunk of the clear waters, but ye must foul the residue with your feet? 19 And as for my sheep, they eat that which ye have trodden with your feet, and they drink that which ye have fouled with your feet.
20 Therefore thus says lord LORD to them: Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep. 21 Because ye thrust with side and with shoulder, and push all the diseased with your horns, till ye have scattered them abroad, 22 therefore I will save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey. And I will judge between sheep and sheep. 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. 24 And I, LORD, will be their God, and my servant David ruler among them. I, LORD, have spoken it.
