Zechariah 11:1-6

1OpenH6605 thy doorsH1817, O LebanonH3844, that the fireH784 may devourH398 thy cedarsH730. 2WailH3213, O fir-tree, for the cedarH730 is fallenH5307, because the goodly onesH117 are destroyedH7703: wailH3213, O ye oaksH437 of BashanH1316, for the strong forestH3293 is comeH3381 down. 3A voiceH6963 of the wailingH3215 of the shepherdsH7462! for their glory is destroyedH7703: a voiceH6963 of the roaringH7581 of youngH3715 lionsH3715! for the prideH1347 of the JordanH3383 is laid waste.

4ThusH3541 saidH559 Jehovah my GodH430: FeedH7462 the flockH6629 of slaughterH2028; 5whose possessors slayH2026 them, and hold themselves not guiltyH816; and they that sellH4376 them sayH559, BlessedH1288 be Jehovah, for I am richH6238; and their own shepherdsH7462 pityH2550 them not. 6For I will no more pityH2550 the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776, saith Jehovah; but, lo, I will deliverH5337 the menH376 every oneH376 into his neighbor’sH7453 handH3027, and into the handH3027 of his kingH4428; and they shall smite the landH776, and out of their handH3027 I will not deliverH5337 them.
