In context

18And is it not enough for you that ye fed on the good pasture, that ye trampled with your feet the remnant of your pasture? and that ye drank the standing water, that ye disturbed the residue with your feet?

19So my sheep fed on that which ye had trampled with your feet; and they drank the water that had been disturbed by your feet.

— Ezekiel 34:20 —

21Ye did thrust with your sides and shoulders, and pushed with your horns, and ye cruelly treated all the sick.

22Therefore I will save my sheep, and they shall not be anymore for a prey; and will judge between ram and ram.
