Ezekiel 34:3

English

³Instead, you eat the butter. You dress yourselves with the wool. You kill the finest animals. But you do not take care of your flocks.

You eat the fat, you clothe yourselves with the wool, you slaughter the fat ones, but you do not feed the sheep.

You eat the curds, clothe yourselves with the wool and slaughter the choice animals, but you do not take care of the flock.

You eat the fat, wear the wool, and butcher the fattened animals, but you do not tend the flock.

You drink the milk, wear the wool, and butcher the best animals, but you let your flocks starve.

The fat you eat, and you clothe yourself with the wool; the well-nourished animals you slaughter, but you do not feed the flock.

Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe you with the wool, ye kill them that are fed: but ye feed not the flock.
