God, the True Shepherd
11 ‘For thus says the Lord God: "Indeed I Myself will search for My sheep and seek them out. 12 As a Jer. 31:10shepherd seeks out his flock on the day he is among his scattered sheep, so will I seek out My sheep and deliver them from all the places where they were scattered on Jer. 13:16; Ezek. 30:3; Joel 2:2a cloudy and dark day. 13 And Is. 65:9, 10; Jer. 23:3; Ezek. 11:17; 20:41; 28:25; 36:24; 37:21, 22I will bring them out from the peoples and gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land; I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, in the valleys and in all the inhabited places of the country. 14 Ps. 23:2; Jer. 3:15; (John 10:9)I will feed them in good pasture, and their fold shall be on the high mountains of Israel. Jer. 33:12There they shall lie down in a good fold and feed in rich pasture on the mountains of Israel. 15 I will feed My flock, and I will make them lie down," says the Lord God. 16 Is. 40:11; Mic. 4:6; (Matt. 18:11; Mark 2:17; Luke 5:32)"I will seek what was lost and bring back what was driven away, bind up the broken and strengthen what was sick; but I will destroy Is. 10:16; Amos 4:1the fat and the strong, and feed them Jer. 10:24in judgment."
