Yahweh continues giving Ezekiel his message to the leaders of Israel. Yahweh continues speaking of the people of Israel as if they were a flock of sheep. Here he speaks of himself as if he were their shepherd and will take care of them. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
This can be stated in first person. Alternate translation: "For this is what I, the Lord Yahweh, say" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-123person]])
