Ezekiel 34:3-5
New English Translation

3 You eat the fat, you clothe yourselves with the wool, you slaughter the choice animals, but you do not feed the sheep! 4 You have not strengthened the weak, healed the sick, bandaged the injured, brought back the strays, or sought the lost, but with force and harshness[a] you have ruled over them. 5 They were scattered because they had no shepherd, and they became food for every wild beast.[b]
