New International Reader's Version

Ezekiel 34:18-22 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

18. You already eat in the best grasslands. Must you also stomp all over the other fields? You already drink clear water. Must you also make the rest of the water muddy with your feet?

19. Must my flock have to eat the grass you have stomped on? Must they drink the water you have made muddy?"

20. So the Lord and King speaks to them. He says, "I myself will judge between the fat sheep and the skinny sheep.

21. You push the other sheep around with your hips and shoulders. You use your horns to butt all of the weak sheep. Finally, you drive them away.

22. But I will save my sheep. They will not be carried off anymore. I will judge between one sheep and another.
