Readings for Celebrating Advent

²⁰ “ ‘So this is what the Almighty Lord says to them: I will judge disputes between the fat sheep and the skinny sheep. ²¹ You fat sheep push the skinny sheep with your sides and shoulders, and you knock down all the sick sheep with your horns. You have scattered them all over. ²² So I will rescue my sheep, and they will no longer be prey. I will judge between one sheep and another. ²³ Then I will place one shepherd over them, my servant David, and he will take care of them. He will take care of them and be their shepherd.
