25 “‘I will make a covenant(G) of peace(H) with them and rid the land of savage beasts(I) so that they may live in the wilderness and sleep in the forests in safety.(J) 26 I will make them and the places surrounding my hill a blessing.[a](K) I will send down showers in season;(L) there will be showers of blessing.(M) 27 The trees will yield their fruit(N) and the ground will yield its crops;(O) the people will be secure(P) in their land.

They will live in safety,(S) and no one will make them afraid.(T) 29 I will provide for them a land renowned(U) for its crops, and they will no longer be victims of famine(V) in the land or bear the scorn(W) of the nations.(X) 30 Then they will know that I, the Lord their God, am with them and that they, the Israelites, are my people, declares the Sovereign Lord.(Y) 31 You are my sheep,(Z) the sheep of my pasture,(AA) and I am your God, declares the Sovereign Lord.’”

Ezekiel 34:23-31
King James Version
Ezekiel 34:23-31
King James Version
23 And I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, even my servant David; he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd.
24 And I the Lord will be their God, and my servant David a prince among them; I the Lord have spoken it.
25 And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land: and they shall dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods.
26 And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing.
27 And the tree of the field shall yield her fruit, and the earth shall yield her increase, and they shall be safe in their land, and shall know that I am the Lord, when I have broken the bands of their yoke, and delivered them out of the hand of those that served themselves of them.
28 And they shall no more be a prey to the heathen, neither shall the beast of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and none shall make them afraid.
29 And I will raise up for them a plant of renown, and they shall be no more consumed with hunger in the land, neither bear the shame of the heathen any more.
30 Thus shall they know that I the Lord their God am with them, and that they, even the house of Israel, are my people, saith the Lord God.
31 And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, saith the Lord God.
