Ezekiel 34:23–31

²³I will set up over them one shepherd, my servant David, and he shall feed them; he shall feed them and be their shepherd.^{* 24}And I the Lord will be their God, and my servant David shall be prince among them; I the Lord have spoken.^*

²⁵I will make with them a covenant of peace and banish wild animals from the land, so that they may live in the wild and sleep in the woods securely.^{* 26}I will make them and the region around my hill a blessing, and I will send down the showers in their season; they shall be showers of blessing.^{* 27}The trees of the field shall yield their fruit, and the earth shall yield its increase. They shall be secure on their soil, and they shall know that I am the Lord when I break the bars of their yoke and save them from the hands of those who enslaved them.^{* 28}They shall no more be plunder for the nations, nor shall the animals of the land devour them; they shall live in safety, and no one shall make them afraid.^{* 29}I will provide for them a splendid vegetation so that they shall no more be consumed with hunger in the land and no longer suffer the insults of the nations.^{* 30}They shall know that I, the Lord their God, am with them and that they, the house of Israel, are my people, says the Lord God. ³¹You are my sheep, the sheep of my pasture,ⁿ and I am your God, says the Lord God.^*
