Ezekiel 34:19–27
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.↗
23I will set up one shepherd over them, and he will feed them, even my servant David. He will feed them, and he will be their shepherd.↗
24I, the LORD, will be their God, and my servant David prince among them. I, the LORD, have spoken it.↗
25“‘I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause evil animals to cease out of the land. They will dwell securely in the wilderness and sleep in the woods.↗
26I will make them and the places around my hill a blessing. I will cause the shower to come down in its season. There will be showers of blessing.↗
27The tree of the field will yield its fruit, and the earth will yield its increase, and they will be secure in their land. Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I have broken the bars of their yoke, and have delivered them out of the hand of those who made slaves of them.↗
