Ezekiel 34:18
Verse 18 of 31. The 34th of 48 chapters in Ezekiel, in The Major Prophets.
14I will feed them with good pasture, and their fold will be on the mountains of the height of Israel. There they will lie down in a good fold. They will feed on rich pasture on the mountains of Israel.
15I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep, and I will cause them to lie down,” says the Lord GOD.
16“I will seek that which was lost, and will bring back that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick; but I will destroy the fat and the strong. I will feed them in justice.”’
17“As for you, O my flock, the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I judge between sheep and sheep, the rams and the male goats.
18Does it seem a small thing to you to have fed on the good pasture, but you must tread down with your feet the residue of your pasture? And to have drunk of the clear waters, but must you foul the residue with your feet?
19As for my sheep, they eat that which you have trodden with your feet, and they drink that which you have fouled with your feet.’
20“Therefore the Lord GOD says to them: ‘Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep.
21Because you thrust with side and with shoulder, and push all the diseased with your horns, until you have scattered them abroad,
22therefore I will save my flock, and they will no more be a prey. I will judge between sheep and sheep.
