Yahweh continues to giving Ezekiel his message. Now it is to the people of Israel.
|
|
|
|
## thus says the Lord Yahweh ##
|
|
|
|
See how you translated this in [Ezekiel 3:10](../03/10.md).
|
|
|
|
## Behold ##
|
|
|
|
The word “behold” here adds emphasis to what follows. Alternate translation: “Indeed.”
|
|
|
|
## I will be a judge among sheep ##
|
|
|
|
"I will judge the sheep, rams, and goats"
|
|
|
|
## rams, and goats ##
|
|
|
|
The male sheep and goats are usually the strongest in the flock and can get whatever they want from the other animals in the flock.
|
|
|
|
## Is it a small thing ##
|
|
|
|
This is the beginning of a question that God uses to scold the stronger ones because they are unkind to weaker ones. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])

## Is it a small thing to be shepherded on the good pasture ##
|
|
|
|
AT: "Is it not enough for you that you graze in the good pasture"
|
|
|
|
## trample down what is left of the pasture ##
|
|
|
|
AT: "walk all over the grass and ruin it"
|
|
|
|
## But my sheep are now being shepherded where you have trampled with your feet ##
|
|
|
|
"But my flock grazes on the pasture that you have trampled down with your feet"
|
|
|
|
## they are now drinking the waters that you have muddied with your feet ##
|
|
|
|
"they drink the water that you made dirty with your feet" |
