Zechariah Chapter 11

 

1 Open your doors, Oh Lebanon, that the fire may devour your cedars.
2 Howl, fir tree; for the cedar is fallen; because the mighty are spoiled: howl, Oh you oaks of Bashan; for the forest of the vintage has come down.
3 There is a voice of the howling of the shepherds; for their glory is spoiled: a voice of the roaring of young lions; for the pride of Jordan is spoiled.
4 Thus says Jehovah my God; Feed the flock of the slaughter;
5 Whose redeemers slay them, and hold themselves not guilty: and those who sell them say, Blessed be Jehovah; for I am rich: and their own shepherds pity them not.
6 For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land, says Jehovah: but, lo, I will deliver the men every one into his neighbor's hand, and into the hand of his king: and they shall smite the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver them.
7 And I will feed the flock of slaughter, even you, Oh poor of the flock. And I took to me two staves; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bonds; and I fed the flock.
8 Three shepherds also I cut off in one month; and my soul loathed them, and their soul also abhorred me.
9 Then said I, I will not feed you: that that dies, let it die; and that that is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let the rest eat every one the flesh of another.
10 And I took my staff, even Beauty, and cut it apart, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the people.
11 And it was broken in that day: and so the poor of the flock that waited upon me knew that it was the word of Jehovah.
12 And I said to them, If you think good, give me my price; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my price thirty pieces of silver.
13 And Jehovah said to me, Cast it to the potter: a goodly price of the precious. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of Jehovah.
14 Then I cut apart my other staff, even Bonds, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
15 And Jehovah said to me, Take to you yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd.
16 For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, which shall not visit those who are cut off, neither shall seek the young one, nor heal that that is broken, nor feed that that stands still: but he shall eat the flesh of the fat, and tear their claws in pieces.
17 Woe to the idol shepherd that leaves the flock! The sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye: his arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
