מִרְעִית

And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, saith the Lord GOD.

According to their pasture, so were they filled; they were filled, and their heart was exalted; therefore have they forgotten me.

That thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth; to them that are in darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places.

For the pastors are become brutish, and have not sought the LORD: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flocks shall be scattered.

Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the LORD.

A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and an howling of the principal of the flock, shall be heard: for the LORD hath spoiled their pasture.

O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever? why doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture?

So we thy people and sheep of thy pasture will give thee thanks for ever: we will shew forth thy praise to all generations.

For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,

Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
