176I have agone astray like a lost sheep; seek your servant,

6 cAll we like sheep have gone astray;
we have turned—every one—to his own way;
dand the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.

6 e“My people have been lost sheep. fTheir shepherds have led them astray, turning them away on the mountains. From mountain to hill they have gone. They have forgotten their fold.

Ezekiel 34:8

8 gAs I live, declares the Lord God, surely because hmy sheep have become a prey, and my sheep have become food for all the wild beasts, since there was no shepherd, and because my shepherds have not searched for my sheep, but the shepherds have fed themselves, and have not fed my sheep,

Ezekiel 34:11-12

The Lord God Will Seek Them Out

11For thus says the Lord God: iBehold, I, I jmyself will search for my sheep and will seek them out. 12As a shepherd seeks out his flock when he is among his sheep that have been scattered, so will I seek out my sheep, and I will rescue them from all places where they have been scattered on ka day of clouds and lthick darkness.

Ezekiel 34:16

16 mI will seek the lost, nand I will bring back the strayed, and I will bind up the injured, and I will strengthen the weak, and othe fat and the strong I will destroy.
Septuagint, Syriac, Vulgate  I will watch over
I will feed them in justice.

Ezekiel 34:31

31And you are my sheep, qhuman sheep of my pasture, and I am your God, declares the Lord God.”

Matthew 18:12-13

12 rWhat do you think? sIf a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them has gone astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountains and go in search of the one that went astray? 13And if he finds it, truly, I say to you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine that never went astray.
