shepherd.ºº |
|
11:16
For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who will not visit those that are cut off, neither will seek those that are scattered, nor heal that which is broken, nor feed that which is sound; but he will eat the flesh of the fat [sheep], and will tear their hoofs in pieces. |

11:16
For,º
lo,º
Iº
will raiseº
upºº
a shepherdºº
in the land,º

neitherº
shall seekºº
the young one,º
norº
healºº
that that is broken,ºº
norº

their clawsº
in pieces.ººº |

eye:º
his armº
