Ezequiel 34:10

10 "Así dice el Señor DIOS: 'He aquí, yo estoy contra los pastores y demandaré mi rebaño de su mano y los haré dejar de apacentar el rebaño. Así los pastores ya no se apacentarán más a sí mismos, sino que yo libraré mis ovejas de su boca, y no serán más alimento para ellos.'"

Ezequiel 34:10 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 34:10

Thus saith the Lord God, behold, I am against the shepherds,
&c.] His heart was against them; his hand was against them; his face was against them, to cut them off. The Targum is,

``behold, I will send my fury upon the governors;''
and there was good reason for it, they were against him and his glory, against his flock, his people, his cause, and interest; sad it is for any to have God against them, and to be against God; for none ever hardened themselves against him and prospered, ( Job 9:4 ) : and I will require my flock at their hand;
the full tale of them that have been committed to their care, and will punish them for the neglect of them; their blood, their life, and the loss of them, I will require at their hands; thus he punished Zedekiah and his princes, and the priests and prophets: and cause them to cease from feeding the flock;
take the kingdom from them, as he did from Zedekiah; abolish the ecclesiastical hierarchy among the Jews; cut off three shepherds in one month, the priests, prophets, and scribes of the people; and put the flock into other hands, the apostles and ministers of the Gospel: neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more;
enrich themselves with the substance of the people: for I will deliver my flock from their mouth, that they may not be meat
for them;
who, instead of being shepherds to feed the flock, were no other than wolves in sheep's clothing, and ravenous lions and bears, which devoured the flock; but this they should do no longer.

Ezequiel 34:10 In-Context

8 Vivo yodeclara el Señor DIOS, ya que mi rebaño se ha convertido en presa, que incluso mi rebaño se ha convertido en alimento para todas las fieras del campo por falta de pastor, y que mis pastores no han buscado mis ovejas, sino que los pastores se han apacentado a sí mismos y no han apacentado mi rebaño,
9 por tanto, pastores, oíd la palabra del SEÑOR:
10 "Así dice el Señor DIOS: 'He aquí, yo estoy contra los pastores y demandaré mi rebaño de su mano y los haré dejar de apacentar el rebaño. Así los pastores ya no se apacentarán más a sí mismos, sino que yo libraré mis ovejas de su boca, y no serán más alimento para ellos.'"
11 Porque así dice el Señor DIOS: He aquí, yo mismo buscaré mis ovejas y velaré por ellas.
12 Como un pastor vela por su rebaño el día que está en medio de sus ovejas dispersas, así yo velaré por mis ovejas y las libraré de todos los lugares adonde fueron dispersadas un día nublado y sombrío.
