Ezequiel 34:8

Listen to Ezequiel 34:8
8 Vivo yo, dijo el Señor DIOS, que por cuanto mi rebaño fue para ser robado, y mis ovejas fueron para ser comidas de toda bestia del campo, sin pastor; ni mis pastores buscaron mis ovejas, sino que los pastores se apacentaron a sí mismos, y no apacentaron mis ovejas;

Ezequiel 34:8 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 34:8

As I live, saith the Lord
It is an oath, and which he swore in his wrath, being provoked with the shepherds for their misadministration: surely, because my flock became a prey, and my flock became meat to
every beast of the field, because there was no shepherd;
a prey to all the kingdoms of the people, being without a governor, as the Targum; or to false teachers, there being no spiritual pastors to take care of them: neither did my shepherds search for my flock;
that was scattered, and carried captive, and became a prey to others; even those that were of God's appointing, as the kings of Israel, their priests and prophets; for both their civil polity and ecclesiastical hierarchy were of God, though the ends thereof were not answered, or the persons put into office did not do their duty: but the shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flock:
(See Gill on Ezekiel 34:2), (See Gill on Ezekiel 34:3).

Ezequiel 34:8 In-Context

6 Y anduvieron perdidas mis ovejas por todos los montes, y en todo collado alto; y en toda la faz de la tierra fueron derramadas mis ovejas, y no hubo quien buscase, ni quien requiriese.
7 Por tanto, pastores, oíd Palabra del SEÑOR:
8 Vivo yo, dijo el Señor DIOS, que por cuanto mi rebaño fue para ser robado, y mis ovejas fueron para ser comidas de toda bestia del campo, sin pastor; ni mis pastores buscaron mis ovejas, sino que los pastores se apacentaron a sí mismos, y no apacentaron mis ovejas;
9 por tanto, oh pastores, oíd palabra del SEÑOR:
10 Así dijo el Señor DIOS: He aquí, yo a los pastores; y requeriré mis ovejas de su mano, y yo les haré dejar de apacentar las ovejas; ni los pastores se apacentarán más a sí mismos; pues yo libraré mis ovejas de sus bocas, y no les serán más por comida.
