Ezekiel 34:14-24 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

14. I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high mountains of Israel shall their fold be: there shall they lie down in a good fold, and in a fat pasture they shall feed upon the mountains of Israel.

15. I will myself feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie down, saith the Lord Jehovah.

16. I will seek the lost, and bring again that which was driven away, and will bind up the broken, and will strengthen that which was sick; but I will destroy the fat and the strong: I will feed them with judgment.

17. And as for you, my flock, thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I judge between sheep and sheep, between the rams and the he-goats.

18. Is it too small a thing unto you to have eaten up the good pastures, but ye must tread down with your feet the rest of your pastures; and to have drunk of the settled waters, but ye must foul the rest with your feet?

19. And my sheep have to eat that which ye have trodden with your feet, and to drink that which ye have fouled with your feet.

20. Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah unto them: Behold, it is I, and I will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep.

21. Because ye thrust with side and with shoulder, and push all the weak ones with your horns, till ye have scattered them abroad,

22. --I will save my flock, that they may no more be a prey; and I will judge between sheep and sheep.

23. And I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, even my servant David: he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd.

24. And I Jehovah will be their God and my servant David a prince in their midst: I Jehovah have spoken it.
