SEV Biblia, Chapter 34:2

Hijo de hombre, profetiza contra los pastores de Israel; profetiza, y diles a los pastores: Así dijo el Señor DIOS: ¡Ay de los pastores de Israel, que se apacientan a sí mismos! ¿Los pastores no apacientan las ovejas?

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 34:2

Verse 2. Prophesy against the
shepherds of Israel] The shepherds include, first, the priests and Levites; secondly, the kings, princes, and magistrates. The flock means the whole of the people. The fat and the wool, the tithes and offerings, the taxes and imposts. The reprehensible feeding and clothing with these, as to the priests and Levites, the using these tithes and offerings, not to enable them the better to fulfill the work of the ministry, but to pamper their own bodies, and support them in an idle voluptuous life; and in reference to the state, the employing the taxes and imposts, not for the support and administration of justice and good government, but to subsidize heathen powers, and maintain their own luxury and idolatrous prodigality.
Matthew Henry Commentary
The
rulers reproved. (Ezek. 34:1-6) The people are to be restored to their own land. (Ezek. 34:7-16) The kingdom of Christ. (Ezek. 34:17-31)

Ezek. 34:1-6 The people became as sheep without a shepherd, were give up as a prey to their enemies, and the land was utterly desolated. N rank or office can exempt from the reproofs of God's word, men wh neglect their duty, and abuse the trust reposed in them.

Ezek. 34:7-16 The Lord declared that he intended mercy towards the scattered flock. Doubtless this, in the first place, had reference to the restoration of the Jews. It also represented the good Shepherd' tender care of the souls of his people. He finds them in their days of darkness and ignorance, and brings them to his fold. He comes to their relief in times of persecution and temptation. He leads them in the ways of righteousness, and causes them to rest on his love an faithfulness. The proud and self-sufficient, are enemies of the tru gospel and of believers; against such we must guard. He has rest for disquieted saints, and terror for presumptuous sinners.

Ezek. 34:17-31 The whole nation seemed to be the Lord's flock, yet the were very different characters; but he knew how to distinguish betwee them. By good pastures and deep waters, are meant the pure word of God and the dispensing of justice. The latter verses, 23-31, prophesy of Christ, and of the most glorious times of his church on earth. Unde Him, as the good Shepherd, the church would be a blessing to all around. Christ, though excellent in himself, was as a tender plant ou of a dry ground. Being the Tree of life, bearing all the fruits of salvation, he yields spiritual food to the souls of his people. Ou constant desire and prayer should be, that there may be showers of blessings in every place where the truth of Christ is preached; an that all who profess the gospel may be filled with fruits of righteousness __________________________________________________________________
