Bible verses about "shepherd" | MKJV

Proverbs 27:23

23 Know well the face of your flocks; set your heart on your herds.

Matthew 9:36

36 But seeing the crowds, He was moved with compassion on them, because they were tired and scattered like sheep having no shepherd.

Matthew 25:31-46

31 But when the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He shall sit on the throne of His glory. 32 And all nations shall be gathered before Him. And He shall separate them from one another, as a shepherd divides the sheep from the goats. 33 And indeed He shall set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats off the left. 34 Then the King shall say to those on His right hand, Come, blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35 For I was hungry, and you gave me food; I was thirsty, and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger, and you took Me in; 36 I was naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me. 37 Then the righteous shall answer Him, saying, Lord, when did we see You hungry, and fed You? Or thirsty, and gave You drink? 38 When did we see You a stranger, and took You in? Or naked, and clothed You? 39 Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and came to You? 40 And the King shall answer and say to them, Truly I say to you, Inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brothers, you have done it to Me. 41 Then He also shall say to those on the left hand, Depart from Me, you cursed, into everlasting fire prepared for the Devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry, and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty, and you gave Me no drink; 43 I was a stranger and you did not take Me in; I was naked, and you did not clothe Me; I was sick, and in prison, and you did not visit me. 44 Then they will also answer Him, saying, Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister to You? 45 Then He shall answer them, saying, Truly I say to you, Inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me. 46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into everlasting life.

Ezekiel 34:1-24

1 And the Word of Jehovah came to me, saying, 2 Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel. Prophesy and say to them, So says the Lord Jehovah to the shepherds: Woe to the shepherds of Israel who feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the flocks? 3 You eat the fat and clothe yourselves with the wool; you kill the fat ones, but you do not feed the flock. 4 You have not made the weak strong, nor have you healed the sick, nor have you bound up the broken. You have not brought again those driven away, nor have you sought that which was lost; but you have ruled them with force and with cruelty. 5 And they were scattered for lack of a shepherd. And they became food to all the beasts of the field when they were scattered. 6 My sheep wandered through all the mountains and on every high hill. Yea, My flock was scattered on all the face of the earth, and none searched nor sought for them. 7 Therefore, shepherds, hear the Word of Jehovah: 8 As I live, says the Lord Jehovah, surely because My flock became a prey, and My flock became food to every beast of the field, because there was no shepherd, nor did My shepherds search for My flock, but the shepherds fed themselves and did not feed My flock, 9 therefore, O shepherds, hear the Word of Jehovah. 10 So says the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against the shepherds, and I will require My flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the flock. Nor shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; for I will deliver My flock from their mouth, and they will not be food to devour. 11 For so says the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I Myself will search for My sheep and seek them out. 12 As a shepherd seeks out his flock in the day that he is among his scattered sheep, so I will seek out My sheep and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day. 13 And I will bring them out from the peoples, and gather them from the lands, and will bring them to their own land and feed them on the mountain of Israel by the rivers, and in all the places of the land where people live. 14 I will feed them in a good pasture, and their fold shall be on the high mountains of Israel. There they shall lie in a good fold, and in a fat pasture they shall feed on the mountains of Israel. 15 I will feed My flock, and I will cause them to lie down, says the Lord Jehovah. 16 I will seek the lost, and bring again those driven away, and will bind up the broken, and will strengthen the sick. But I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with judgment. 17 And you, My flock, says the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I judge between lamb and lamb, between rams and he-goats. 18 Is it a small thing to you to have eaten up the good pasture, but you must trample the rest of your pastures with your feet? And to have drunk of the clear waters, but you must foul the rest with your feet? 19 And My flock, they eat what your feet have trampled, and they drink what your feet have fouled. 20 So the Lord Jehovah says this to them: Behold I Myself will even judge between the fat lamb and the lean lamb. 21 Because you have thrust with side and with shoulder, and have pushed all the weak with your horns until you have scattered them to the outside, 22 therefore I will save My flock, and they shall no more be a prey. And I will judge between lamb and lamb. 23 And I will set up one Shepherd over them, and He shall feed them, My servant David. He shall feed them, and He shall be their Shepherd. 24 And I Jehovah will be their God, and My servant David a ruler among them. I Jehovah have spoken.

1 Peter 5:4

4 And when the Chief Shepherd shall appear, you shall receive a never-fading crown of glory.

1 Peter 2:25

25 For you were as sheep going astray, but now you are turned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

John 10:14

14 I am the Good Shepherd, and I know those that are Mine, and I am known by those who are Mine.

Psalms 23:1-6

1 A Psalm of David. Jehovah is my Shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. 3 He restores my soul; He leads me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. 5 You prepare a table for me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup runs over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I shall dwell in the house of Jehovah forever.

John 10:11

11 I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.
