Ezekiel 34:3 in Context — Ezekiel 34

1 Y FUÉ á mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:

2 Hijo del hombre, profetiza contra los pastores de Israel; profetiza, y diles á los pastores: Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: ¡Ay de los pastores de Israel, que se apacientan á sí mismos! ¿No apacientan los pastores los rebaños?

3 Coméis la leche, y os vestís de la lana: la gruesa degolláis, no apacentáis las ovejas.

4 No corroborasteis las flacas, ni curasteis la enferma: no ligasteis la perniquebrada, ni tornasteis la amontada, ni buscasteis la perdida; sino que os habéis enseñoreado de ellas con dureza y con violencia;

5 Y están derramadas por falta de pastor; y fueron para ser comidas de toda bestia del campo, y fueron esparcidas.
