Isaiah 40:11
New American Standard Bible
11 Like a shepherd He will (A)tend His flock,
In His arm He will gather the lambs
And carry them in the fold of His robe;
He will gently lead the nursing ewes.
Ezekiel 34:11-16
New American Standard Bible
The Restoration of Israel
11 For the Lord God says this: “Behold, I Myself will (A)search for My sheep and look after them. 12 (B)As a shepherd cares for his flock on a day when he is among his scattered [a]sheep, so I will (C)care for My [b]sheep and will rescue them from all the places where they were scattered on a (D)cloudy and gloomy day. 13 I will bring them out from the peoples and gather them from the countries and bring them to their own land; and I will (E)feed them on the mountains of Israel, by the (F)streams, and in all the inhabited places of the land. 14 I will feed them in a (G)good pasture, and their grazing place will be on the mountain heights of Israel. There they will lie down in a good grazing place and feed in [c](H)rich pasture on the mountains of Israel. 15 I Myself will (I)feed My flock and I Myself will [d]lead them to rest,” declares the Lord God. 16 “I will seek the lost, bring back the scattered, bind up the broken, and strengthen the sick; but the (J)fat and the strong I will eliminate. I will (K)feed them with judgment.
