Yechezkel 34:11-19 יחזקאל ל״ד:י״א-י״ט

For thus says the Lord God; Behold, I will both search my sheep, and seek them out.

As a shepherd seeks out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are strayed; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been dispersed in the cloudy and dark day.

And I will bring them out from among the peoples, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land, and pasture them upon the mountains of Yisra᾽el by the water courses, and in all the inhabited places of the country.

I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high mountains of Yisra᾽el shall their fold be: there shall they lie in a good pasture, and in a fat grazing land shall they feed upon the mountains of Yisra᾽el.

I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie down, says the Lord God.

I will seek that which was lost, and bring back the strayed, and will bind up the crippled, and will strengthen the sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will make them graze upon justice.

And as for you, O my flock, thus says the Lord God; Behold, I judge between one lamb and another, the rams and the he goats.

Is it so small a thing to you that you have eaten up the good pasture, but you must also tread down with your feet the residue of your pasture lands? and to have drunk of the clear waters, but you must also foul the residue with your feet?

And as for my sheep they eat that which you have trodden with your feet; and they drink that which you have fouled with your feet.
