Therefore thus saith the LORD God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the LORD.
Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them; behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the Lord - just retribution. Play upon the double sense of "visit." "Visit upon," namely, in wrath (Exodus 32:34). As you have failed to visit the flock with pastoral care, I will visit you with judicial retribution. "The evil of your doings" will recoil upon yourselves.
