TSNTyndale Study Notes:

11:9 devour each other! This might refer literally to the cannibalism that resulted from famine during the siege of Jerusalem in 588–586 BC (see Lam 4:10) and later in AD 70 (see Josephus, War 7.4.4). The expression may also be a metaphor for various forms of exploitation and oppression (see Mic 3:3; Gal 5:15).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

(Occurrence 0) the sheep that are being destroyed—let them be destroyed

(Some words not found in UHB: and,said not be_~_shepherd DOM,you_all the,dying die and,the,destroyed destroyed and,the,left devour woman/wife DOM flesh another's,her )

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “the sheep that are perishing—let them perish” or “the sheep that are to wander and get lost—let them get lost”
