Ezekiel 34:1
Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 “Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel. Prophesy and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Woe to the shepherds of Israel, who only feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed their flock?
3 You eat the fat, wear the wool, and butcher the fattened sheep, but you do not feed the flock.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
