Zechariah 11:7-11
Zechariah 11:7
So I pastured the flock doomed to slaughter, therefore also the afflicted of the flock. And I took for myself two staffs: the one I called Favor, and the other I called Union; so I pastured the flock.
Zechariah 11:8
Then I did away with the three shepherds in one month, for my soul was impatient with them, and their soul also was tired of me.
Zechariah 11:9
Then I said, “I will not pasture you. What is to die, let it die, and what is to perish, let it perish; and let those who are left eat one another’s flesh.”
Zechariah 11:10
And I took my staff Favor and cut it in pieces, to break my covenant which I had made with all the peoples.
Zechariah 11:11
So it was broken on that day, and so the afflicted of the flock who were watching me realized that it was the word of the Lord.
