Jesus, the Christ: Shepherd, Jesus the True: He Protects and Preserves

Hear, O nations, the word of the LORD, and proclaim it in distant coastlands: “The One who scattered Israel will gather them and keep them as a shepherd keeps his flock.

This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I am against the shepherds, and I will demand from them My flock and remove them from tending the flock, so that they can no longer feed themselves. For I will deliver My flock from their mouths, and it will no longer be food for them.’

On that day the LORD their God will save them as the flock of His people; for like jewels in a crown they will sparkle over His land.

I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them out of My hand.
