Ezekiel 34:8
34:8 As surely as I live, declares the sovereign
Lord, my sheep have become prey and have become food for all the wild beasts. There was no shepherd, and my shepherds did not search for my flock, but fed themselves and did not feed my sheep,

all you wild animals in the forest!
Jeremiah 12:9-12
12:9 The people I call my own attack me like birds of prey or like hyenas.
But other birds of prey are all around them.
Let all the nations gather together like wild beasts.
Let them come and destroy these people I call my own.
12:10 Many foreign rulers will ruin the land where I planted my people.
They will trample all over my chosen land.
They will turn my beautiful land
into a desolate wasteland.
12:11 They will lay it waste.
It will lie parched and empty before me.
The whole land will be laid waste.
But no one living in it will pay any heed.
12:12 A destructive army will come marching
over the hilltops in the desert.
For the Lord will use them as his destructive weapon
against everyone from one end of the land to the other.
No one will be safe.

10:2 The one who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
Acts 20:29-31
20:29 I know that after I am gone
fierce wolves
will come in among you, not sparing the flock.
20:30 Even from among your own group
men
will arise, teaching perversions of the truth
to draw the disciples away after them.
20:31 Therefore be alert,
remembering that night and day for three years I did not stop warning
each one of you with tears.
