¹¹“ ‘For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I myself will search for my sheepⁱ and look after them. ¹²As a shepherd^j looks after his scattered flock when he is with them, so will I look after my sheep. I will rescue them from all the places where they were scattered on a day of clouds and darkness.^k ¹³I will bring them out from the nations and gather^l them from the countries, and I will bring them into their own land.^m I will pasture them on the mountains of Israel, in the ravines and in all the settlements in the land.ⁿ ¹⁴I will tend them in a good pasture, and the mountain heights of Israel^o will be their grazing land. There they will lie down in good grazing land, and there they will feed in a rich pasture^p on the mountains of Israel.^q ¹⁵I myself will tend my sheep and have them lie down,^r declares the Sovereign Lord.^s ¹⁶I will search for the lost and bring back the strays. I will bind up^t the injured and strengthen the weak,^u but the sleek and the strong I will destroy.^v I will shepherd the flock with justice.^w
