23 “Woe to the shepherds who are destroying and scattering the sheep of my pasturage!”+ is the utterance of Jehovah.

6 A flock of perishing creatures my people has become.+ Their own shepherds have caused them to wander about.+ On the mountains they have led them away.+ From mountain to hill they have gone. They have forgotten their resting-place.+

5 And they were gradually scattered because of there being no shepherd,+ so that they became food for every wild beast of the field, and they continued to be scattered.+

36 On seeing the crowds he felt pity+ for them, because they were skinned* and thrown about like sheep without a shepherd.+
