Ezekiel 34:8-10

8 “As I live,” declares the Lord God, “surely because My flock has become a ^aprey, My flock has even become food for all the beasts of the field for lack of a shepherd, and My shepherds did not search for My flock, but rather the shepherds fed themselves and did not feed My flock; 9 therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the Lord: 10 ‘Thus says the Lord God, “Behold, I am ^bagainst the shepherds, and I will demand My ^{▼▼ Or (a) flock}sheep ^{▼▼ Lit from their hand}from them and make them ^ecease from feeding ^{▼▼ Or (a) flock}sheep. So the shepherds will not ^{▼▼ Lit pasture, and so throughout the ch}feed themselves anymore, but I will ^hdeliver My flock from their mouth, so that they will not be food for them.”’”
