Ezekiel 34 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Eze 34:1

Eze 34:1The word of the LORD came to me, saying,

Eze 34:2

Eze 34:2Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Yisra'el, prophesy, and tell them, even to the shepherds, Thus says the Lord GOD: Woe to the shepherds of Yisra'el who feed themselves! Shouldn't the shepherds feed the sheep?

Eze 34:3

Eze 34:3You eat the fat, and you clothe you with the wool, you kill the fatlings; but you don't feed the sheep.

Eze 34:4

Eze 34:4You haven't strengthened the diseased, neither have you healed that which was sick, neither have you bound up that which was broken, neither have you brought back that which was driven away, neither have you sought that which was lost; but with force and with rigor have you ruled over them.

Eze 34:5

Eze 34:5They were scattered, because there was no shepherd; and they became food to all the animals of the field, and were scattered.

Eze 34:6

Eze 34:6My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and on every high hill: yes, my sheep were scattered on all the surface of the eretz; and there was none who searched or sought.

Eze 34:7

Eze 34:7Therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the LORD:

Eze 34:8

Eze 34:8As I live, says the Lord GOD, surely because my sheep became a prey, and my sheep became food to all the animals of the field, because there was no shepherd, neither did my shepherds search for my sheep, but the shepherds fed themselves, and didn't feed my sheep;

Eze 34:9

Eze 34:9therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the LORD:

Eze 34:10

Eze 34:10Thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my sheep at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the sheep; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; and I will deliver my sheep from their mouth, that they may not be food for them.

The Restoration of Israel

Eze 34:11

Eze 34:11For thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I myself, even I, will search for my sheep, and will seek them out.

Eze 34:12

Eze 34:12As a shepherd seeks out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered abroad, so will I seek out my sheep; and I will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.

Eze 34:13

Eze 34:13I will bring them out from the peoples, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them into their own land; and I will feed them on the mountains of Yisra'el, by the watercourses, and in all the inhabited places of the country.

Eze 34:14

Eze 34:14I will feed them with good pasture; and on the mountains of the height of Yisra'el shall their fold be: there shall they lie down in a good fold; and on fat pasture shall they feed on the mountains of Yisra'el.

Eze 34:15

Eze 34:15I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep, and I will cause them to lie down, says the Lord GOD.

Eze 34:16

Eze 34:16I 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 the fat and the strong I will destroy; I will feed them in justice.

Eze 34:17

Eze 34:17As for you, O my flock, thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I judge between sheep and sheep, the rams and the male goats.

Eze 34:18

Eze 34:18Seems it 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 you must foul the residue with your feet?

Eze 34:19

Eze 34:19As for my sheep, they eat that which you have trodden with your feet, and they drink that which you have fouled with your feet.

Eze 34:20

Eze 34:20Therefore thus says the Lord GOD to them: Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep.

Eze 34:21

Eze 34:21Because you thrust with side and with shoulder, and push all the diseased with your horns, until you have scattered them abroad;

Eze 34:22

Eze 34:22therefore will I save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between sheep and sheep.

Eze 34:23

Eze 34:23I 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.

Eze 34:24

Eze 34:24I, the LORD, will be their God, and my servant David prince among them; I, the LORD, have spoken it.

Eze 34:25

Eze 34:25I will make with them a covenant of shalom, and will cause evil animals to cease out of the land; and they shall dwell securely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods.

Eze 34:26

Eze 34:26I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in its season; there shall be showers of blessing.

Eze 34:27

Eze 34:27The tree of the field shall yield its fruit, and the eretz shall yield its increase, and they shall be secure in their land; and they shall 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.

Eze 34:28

Eze 34:28They shall no more be a prey to the nations, neither shall the animals of the eretz devour them; but they shall dwell securely, and none shall make them afraid.

Eze 34:29

Eze 34:29I will raise up to them a plantation for renown, and they shall be no more consumed with famine in the land, neither bear the shame of the nations any more.

Eze 34:30

Eze 34:30They shall know that I, the LORD, their God am with them, and that they, the house of Yisra'el, are my people, says the Lord GOD.

Eze 34:31

Eze 34:31You my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, says the Lord GOD.
