At Ezekiel 34: 16, he likened himself to a shepherd and the people of the nation of Israel to lost sheep: “The lost one I shall search for, and the dispersed one I shall bring back. ”
Hesekieli 34: 16 võrdles ta ennast karjasega ja Iisraeli rahvast kadunud lammastega: „Ma otsin kadunut ja toon tagasi eksinu. ”
