Vivo ego, dicit Dominus Deus, quia pro eo quod facti sunt greges mei in rapinam, et oves meæ in devorationem omnium bestiarum agri, eo quod non esset pastor: neque enim quæsierunt pastores mei gregem meum, sed pascebant pastores semetipsos, et greges meos non pascebant:
As I live, saith the Lord God, forasmuch as my flocks have been made a spoil, and my sheep are become a prey to all the beasts of the field, because there was no shepherd: for my shepherds did not seek after my flock, but the shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flocks:
Vive me, dic Domino Deo, quia pro eo quod fac es greges meo in rapina, et oves meo in devoratione de omni de bestias de agro, eo quod non es pastore: neque nam pastores meo quaere grege meo, sed pasce pastores semetipso, et greges meo non pasce:
