Zechariah 11:7-11

7And I will feedH7462 the flockH6629 of slaughterH2028, even youH3651, O poorH6041 of the flockH6629. And I tookH3947 unto me twoH8147 stavesH4731; the oneH259 I calledH7121 GraceH5278, and the otherH259 I calledH7121 UnionH2254; and I fedH7462 the flockH6629.12 8ThreeH7969 shepherdsH7462 also I cut offH3582 in oneH259 monthH3391; and my soulH5315 lothedH7114 them, and their soulH5315 also abhorredH973 me.3 9Then saidH559 I, I will not feedH7462 you: that that diethH4191, let it dieH4191; and that that is to be cut offH3582, let it be cut offH3582; and let the restH7604 eatH398 every oneH802 the fleshH1320 of anotherH7468.4

10And I tookH3947 my staffH4731, even GraceH5278, and cut it asunderH1438, that I might breakH6565 my covenantH1285 which I had madeH3772 with all the peopleH5971. 11And it was brokenH6565 in that dayH3117: and so the poorH6041 of the flockH6629 that waitedH8104 upon me knewH3045 that it was the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068.5
