Zechariah 11:4-14

4Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 my GodH430; FeedH7462 the flockH6629 of the slaughterH2028; 5Whose possessorsH7069 slayH2026 them, and hold themselves not guiltyH816: and they that sellH4376 them sayH559, BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068; for I am richH6238: and their own shepherdsH7462 pityH2550 them not. 6For I will no more pityH2550 the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: but, lo, I will deliverH4672 the menH120 every oneH376 into his neighbour’sH7453 handH3027, and into the handH3027 of his kingH4428: and they shall smiteH3807 the landH776, and out of their handH3027 I will not deliverH5337 them .1 7And I will feedH7462 the flockH6629 of slaughterH2028, even youH3651, O poorH6041 of the flockH6629. And I tookH3947 to me twoH8147 staffsH4731; the oneH259 I calledH7121 BeautyH5278, and the otherH259 I calledH7121 BandsH2254; and I fedH7462 the flockH6629.23 8ThreeH7969 shepherdsH7462 also I cut offH3582 in oneH259 monthH3391; and my soulH5315 lothedH7114 them, and their soulH5315 also abhorredH973 me.4 9Then saidH559 I, I will not feedH7462 you: that which diethH4191, let it dieH4191; and that which is to be cut offH3582, let it be cut offH3582; and let the restH7604 eatH398 every oneH802 the fleshH1320 of anotherH7468.5 10And I tookH3947 my staffH4731, even BeautyH5278, 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 the LORDH3068.6 12And I saidH559 to them, If ye thinkH5869 goodH2896, giveH3051 me my priceH7939; and if not, forbearH2308. So they weighedH8254 for my priceH7939 thirtyH7970 pieces of silverH3701.7 13And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to me, CastH7993 it to the potterH3335: a magnificentH145 priceH3366 that I was valued atH3365 by them. And I tookH3947 the thirtyH7970 pieces of silverH3701, and castH7993 them to the potterH3335 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. 14Then I cut asunderH1438 my otherH8145 staffH4731, even BandsH2254, that I might breakH6565 the brotherhoodH264 between JudahH3063 and IsraelH3478.8
