Ezekiel 34:8-10
Legacy Standard Bible
8 “As I live,” declares Lord Yahweh, “surely because My flock has become (A)plunder, My flock has even become food for all the beasts of the field for lack of a shepherd, and My shepherds did not seek for My flock, but rather the shepherds shepherded themselves and did not shepherd My flock; 9 therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of Yahweh: 10 ‘Thus says Lord Yahweh, “Behold, I am (B)against the shepherds, and I will seek My flock from their hand and make them (C)cease from shepherding the flock. So the shepherds will not shepherd themselves anymore, but I will (D)deliver My flock from their mouth so that they will not be food for them.”’”

Yahweh Will Not Answer
3 And I said,
“(A)Hear now, heads of Jacob
And rulers of the house of Israel.
Is it not for you to (B)know justice?
2 You who hate good and love evil,
Who (C)tear off their skin from them
And their flesh from their bones,
3 And who (D)eat the flesh of my people,
Strip off their skin from them,
Break their bones,
And (E)spread them out as for the pot
And as meat in a caldron.”
Micah 3:11
Legacy Standard Bible
11 Her heads pronounce (A)judgment for a bribe,
And her (B)priests instruct for a price,
And her prophets divine for money.
Yet they lean on Yahweh saying,
“(C)Is not Yahweh in our midst?
Evil will not come upon us.”
