Ezekiel 34:1-3
Evangelical Heritage Version
The Lord’s Shepherd Will Save His Sheep
34 The word of the Lord came to me.
2 Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel. Prophesy and say to those shepherds that this is what the Lord God says.
Woe to you, shepherds of Israel, who have been shepherding for themselves. Aren’t shepherds supposed to shepherd for the benefit of the sheep? 3 You eat the fat.[a] You wear the wool. You slaughter the fattened ones—but you do not shepherd the flock.
Footnotes
- Ezekiel 34:3 This may refer to the fat of dairy products like cheese. The ancient versions read milk.
