Therefore thus says the Lord Jehovah to them: Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep.

therefore I will save My flock, and they shall no longer be a prey; and I will judge between sheep and sheep.

I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant;

I will purge out the rebels from among you, and those who transgress against Me. I will bring them out of the land where they dwell, but they shall not enter into the land of Israel. And you will know that I am Jehovah.

My anger is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the rams. For Jehovah of Hosts has visited His flock, the house of Judah, and made them as His majestic horse in battle.

And all the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides the sheep from the goats.

And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left.
