Irresponsible Shepherds
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God to the shepherds: a“Woe to the shepherds of Israel who feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the flocks?
3 aYou eat the fat and clothe yourselves with the wool; you bslaughter the fatlings, but you do not feed the flock.
4 aThe weak you have not strengthened, nor have you healed those who were sick, nor bound up the broken, nor brought back what was driven away, nor bsought what was lost; but with cforce and cruelty you have ruled them.
5 aSo they were bscattered because there was no shepherd; cand they became food for all the beasts of the field when they were scattered.
6 My sheep awandered through all the mountains, and on every high hill; yes, My flock was scattered over the whole face of the earth, and no one was seeking or searching for them.”
