Zechariah 11:5-8

LEB(i) 5 The ones buying them kill them and go unpunished, and the ones selling them say, 'Blessed be Yahweh, for I have become rich.' Their own shepherds have no compassion for them. 6 For I will no longer have compassion on the inhabitants of the land," declares* Yahweh. "Look, I am going to cause humankind to fall, each into the hand of his neighbor, and into the hand of his king; and they will devastate the land, and I will not deliver anyone from their hand." 7 And I shepherded the flock* doomed to slaughter, even* the afflicted* of the flock.* I took two staffs, one I called Kindness, and the other I called Unity, and I shepherded the flock.* 8 And I got rid of three shepherds in one month, for I grew impatient* with them, and they also became tired of me.*
