«The priests said not, Where is the LORD? and they that handle the law knew me not: the pastors also transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit.»
«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.»
«For the pastors are become brutish, and have not sought the LORD: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flocks shall be scattered.»
«Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the LORD.»
«Many pastors have destroyed my vineyard, they have trodden my portion under foot, they have made my pleasant portion a desolate wilderness.»
«Turn, O backsliding children, saith the LORD; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion: / And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.»
«(Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? / He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.) / And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; / For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: / Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: / That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; / But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: / From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.»
