Zechariah 11:7-11
7So I 1pasturedH7462 the flockH6629 doomed to slaughterH2028, 2henceH3651 the 3afflictedH6041 of the flockH6629. And I tookH3947 for myself twoH8147 4staffsH4731: the oneH259 I calledH7121 56FavorH5278 and the otherH259 I calledH7121 78UnionH2260; so I pasturedH7462 the flockH6629.
8Then I annihilatedH3582 the threeH7969 shepherdsH7462 in 9oneH259 monthH3391, for my soulH5315 was impatientH7114 with them, and their soulH5315 alsoH1571 10was wearyH973 of me.
9Then I saidH559, “I will not pastureH7462 you. What is to 11dieH4191, 12let it dieH4191, and what is to be annihilatedH3582, 13let it be annihilatedH3582; and 14let those who are leftH7604 eatH398 oneH802 another’sH7468 fleshH1320.”
10I tookH3947 my staffH4731 1516FavorH5278 and cutH1438 it in piecesH1438, to 1718breakH6565 my covenantH1285 whichH834 I had madeH3772 with allH3605 the peoplesH5971.
11So it was 19brokenH6565 on that dayH3117, and 20thusH3651 the 21afflictedH6041 of the flockH6629 who were watchingH8104 me realizedH3045 that it was the wordH1697 of the LordH3068.
