I was not sent to anyone except to the lost sheep ... Israel

"I was sent only to the lost sheep ... Israel"

to the lost sheep of the house of Israel

This refers to the people of Israel. They were like sheep who had strayed from their shepherd. Alternate translation: “the people of Israel. They are like lost sheep.” See how you translated this in Matthew 10:6.
