I WILL DELIVER MY FLOCK

EZEKIEL 34:1-10

AND THE WORD OF THE LORD 

CAME UNTO ME SAYING, 

SON OF MAN, 

PROPHESY AGAINST THE SHEPHERDS 

OF ISRAEL, PROPHESY, 

AND SAY UNTO THEM, 

THUS SAITH THE LORD GOD 

UNTO THE SHEPHERDS; 

WOE BE TO THE SHEPHERDS 

OF ISRAEL THAT 

DO FEED THEMSELVES!  

SHOULD NOT THE SHEPHERDS 

FEED THE FLOCKS? 

YE EAT THE FAT, 

AND 

YE CLOTHE YOU WITH THE WOOL,

YE KILL THEM THAT ARE FED: 

BUT YE FEED NOT THE FLOCK. 

THE DISEASED HAVE YE NOT STRENGTHENED,

NEITHER HAVE YE HEALED

THAT WHICH WAS SICK,

NEITHER HAVE YE

BOUND UP THAT WHICH WAS BROKEN, NEITHER HAVE YE BROUGHT

AGAIN THAT WHICH WAS DRIVEN AWAY, NEITHER HAVE YE SOUGHT

THAT WHICH WAS LOST;

BUT WITH FORCE AND WITH CRUELTY HAVE YE RULED THEM.

AND THEY WERE SCATTERED,

BECAUSE THERE IS NO SHEPHERD:

AND THEY BECAME

MEAT TO ALL

THE BEASTS OF THE FIELD,

WHEN THEY WERE SCATTERED.
MY SHEEP WANDERED THROUGH 

ALL THE MOUNTAINS, 

AND UPON EVERY HIGH HILL: 

YEA, MY FLOCK WAS 

SCATTERED UPON ALL 

THE FACE OF THE EARTH, 

AND NONE DID 

SEARCH OR SEEK AFTER THEM. 

THEREFORE, YE SHEPHERDS, 

HEAR THE WORD OF THE LORD; 

AS I LIVE, SAITH THE LORD GOD, 

SURELY BECAUSE MY FLOCK BECAME 

A PREY, AND MY FLOCK 

BECAME MEAT TO EVERY 

BEAST OF THE FIELD, 

BECAUSE THERE WAS NO SHEPHERD, NEITHER DID MY SHEPHERDS 

SEARCH FOR MY FLOCK, 

BUT THE SHEPHERDS

FED THEMSELVES, 

AND FED NOT MY FLOCK; 

THEREFORE, O YE SHEPHERDS, 

HEAR THE WORD OF THE LORD; 

THUS SAITH 

THE LORD GOD; 

BEHOLD, I AM AGAINST THE SHEPHERDS, 

AND 

I WILL REQUIRE 

MY FLOCK AT THEIR HAND, 

AND 

CAUSE THEM TO CEASE 

FROM FEEDING THE FLOCK; 

NEITHER SHALL 

THE SHEPHERDS FEED 

THEMSELVES ANY MORE; 

FOR 

I WILL DELIVER MY FLOCK 

FROM 

THEIR MOUTH, 

THAT THEY MAY NOT 

BE MEAT FOR THEM.

LOVE
