Com’è vero ch’io vivo, dice il Signore, l’Eterno, poiché le mie pecore sono abbandonate alla rapina; poiché le mie pecore, essendo senza pastore, servon di pasto a tutte le fiere de’ campi, e i miei pastori non cercano le mie pecore; poiché i pastori pascon se stessi e non pascono le mie pecore,

Com vero che io vivo", dice il Signore, lEterno, "poich le mie pecore sono divenute una preda, le mie pecore sono andate in pasto a tutte le fiere della campagna per mancanza di un pastore e perch i miei pastori non sono andati in cerca delle mie pecore, ma i pastori hanno pasciuto se stessi e non hanno pasciuto le mie pecore".

Gill's Notes on the Bible

As I live, saith the Lord,.... It is an oath, and which he swore in his wrath, being provoked with the shepherds for their misadministration:

surely, because my flock became a prey, and my flock became meat to every beast of the field, because there was no shepherd; a prey to all the kingdoms of the people, being without a governor, as the Targum; or to false teachers, there being no spiritual pastors to take care of them:

neither did my shepherds search for my flock; that was scattered, and carried captive, and became a prey to others; even those that were of God's appointing, as the kings of Israel, their priests and prophets; for both their civil polity and ecclesiastical hierarchy were of God, though the ends thereof were not answered, or the persons put into office did not do their duty:

but the shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flock:
