Ezekiel 34:17-22
Legacy Standard Bible
17 “As for you, My flock, thus says Lord Yahweh, ‘Behold, I will (A)judge between one [a]sheep and another, between the rams and the male goats. 18 Is it too (B)slight a thing for you that you should be shepherded in the good pasture, that you must tread down with your feet the rest of your pastures? Or that you should drink of the clear waters, that you must [b]foul the rest with your feet? 19 As for My flock, they must be shepherded on what you tread down with your feet and drink what you [c]foul with your feet!’”
20 Therefore, thus says Lord Yahweh to them, “Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep. 21 Because you push with side and with shoulder, and (C)thrust at all the sickly with your horns until you have scattered them [d]abroad, 22 therefore, I will (D)save My flock, and they will no longer be plunder; and I will judge between one sheep and another.

9 “For behold, I am commanding,
And I will (A)shake the house of Israel among all nations
As grain is shaken in a sieve,
But not a [a]kernel will fall to the ground.
10 All the (B)sinners of My people will die by the sword,
Those who say, ‘(C)The calamity will not overtake or confront us.’

8 And it will be in all the land,”
Declares Yahweh,
“That (A)two parts in it will be cut off and breathe their last;
But the third will be left in it.
9 And I will bring the third part through the (B)fire
And refine them as silver is refined
And test them as gold is tested.
[a]They will (C)call on My name,
And I will (D)answer them;
I will say, ‘They are (E)My people,’
And they will say, ‘Yahweh is my God.’”

The Great Day of Yahweh
4 “[a]For behold, the day is coming, (A)burning like a furnace; and all the arrogant and every worker of wickedness will be (B)chaff; and the day that is coming will (C)set them aflame,” says Yahweh of hosts, “so that it will leave them neither root nor branch.” 2 “But for you who [b]fear My name, the (D)sun of righteousness will rise with (E)healing in its wings; and you will go forth and (F)skip about like calves from the stall. 3 And you will (G)tread down the wicked, for they will be (H)ashes under the soles of your feet (I)on the day [c]which I am preparing,” says Yahweh of hosts.
