34:3 Ye eat the {b} fat, and ye clothe yourselves with the wool, ye kill them that are fed: [but] ye feed not the flock.

(b) You seek to enrich yourselves by their conveniences and to spoil their riches and substance.

34:3 Ye kill - You contrive methods, to take first the life, and next the estate of the well - fed, the rich and wealthy. But - You take care to lead, protect, provide for, and watch over them.

34:1-6 The people became as sheep without a shepherd, were given up as a prey to their enemies, and the land was utterly desolated. No rank or office can exempt from the reproofs of God's word, men who neglect their duty, and abuse the trust reposed in them.
