# The Lord Yahweh says this

"I, the Lord Yahweh, say this"

# Behold!

"Indeed!"

# I am against the shepherds

"I am opposed to the shepherds"

# I will require my flock from their hand

"I will punish them for all the bad things they let happen to my flock"

# I will dismiss them from shepherding the flock

"I will not let them shepherd the flock any longer" or "I will not let them be the shepherds of the flock any longer"

# shepherd themselves

"feed and take care of themselves"

# from their mouths

"so they cannot eat them"

# my flock will no longer be food for them

"the shepherds will no longer eat the sheep and the goats of my flock"
