Ezekiel 34:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Ezekiel 34:6

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.”

7 ‘Therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the Lord:

8 “As I live,” says the Lord God, “surely because My flock became a prey, and My flock ^abecame food for every beast of the field, because there was no shepherd, nor did My shepherds search for My flock, ^bbut the shepherds fed themselves and did not feed My flock”—

9 therefore, O shepherds, hear the word of the Lord!

10 Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I am ^aagainst the shepherds, and ^bI will require My flock at their hand; I will cause them to cease feeding the sheep, and the shepherds shall ^cfeed themselves no more; for I will ^ddeliver My flock from their mouths, that they may no longer be food for them.”
