'Flock' in the Bible

For the shepherds are stupid:they don’t seek the Lord.Therefore they have not prospered,and their whole flock is scattered.

But if you will not listen,my innermost being will weep in secretbecause of your pride.My eyes will overflow with tears,for the Lord’s flock has been taken captive.

Look up and seethose coming from the north.Where is the flock entrusted to you,the sheep that were your pride?

“Therefore, this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says about the shepherds who shepherd My people: You have scattered My flock, banished them, and have not attended to them. I will attend to you because of your evil acts”—this is the Lord’s declaration.

“I will gather the remnant of My flock from all the lands where I have banished them, and I will return them to their grazing land. They will become fruitful and numerous.

Wail, you shepherds, and cry out.Roll in the dust, you leaders of the flock.Because the days of your slaughter have come,you will fall and become shattered like a precious vase.

Flight will be impossible for the shepherds,and escape, for the leaders of the flock.

Hear the sound of the shepherds’ cry,the wail of the leaders of the flock,for the Lord is destroying their pasture.

Nations, hear the word of the Lord,and tell it among the far off coastlands!Say: The One who scattered Israel will gather him.He will watch over him as a shepherd guards his flock,

Escape from Babylon;depart from the Chaldeans’ land.Be like the rams that lead the flock.

With you I will smash the shepherd and his flock;with you I will smash the farmer and his ox-team.With you I will smash governors and officials.
