1. The Lord God said:
2. Ezekiel, son of man, Israel's leaders are like shepherds taking care of my sheep, the people of Israel. But I want you to condemn these leaders and tell them:I, the Lord God, say you shepherds of Israel are doomed! You take care of yourselves while ignoring my sheep.
3. You drink their milk and use their wool to make your clothes. Then you butcher the best ones for food. But you don't take care of the flock!
